Khatu Dham has turned bright and colorful ahead of Khatu Shyam Ji birthday. His birth anniversary will be marked on November 1, and a huge crowd is expected as People from India and abroad are traveling to the temple town to seek blessings. With the rush rising every hour, police and local officers have changed many rules for darshan and movement.
The administration says these steps are for safety and to make sure devotees do not face trouble.
Darshan Rules Changed — Read Before You Travel
Darshan will move slower due to crowd control. Extra checks will take place at every entry. Devotees may have to wait longer than before. The temple committee has asked visitors to carry valid ID cards. They also advised people to follow instructions from the duty staff without argument.
Fireworks are banned this year. No one can burst crackers from dharamshalas, hotels, or rooftops. The orders are strict. Police say action will be taken if anyone breaks rules.
Two high-tech drones will watch over the area. They will scan long routes and main spots where footfall gets heavy.
Massive Security Force on Ground
Around 1200 police staff will handle the safety plans. Senior officers, women constables, and more than 500 Home Guards will be posted. On top of that, 1000 private security guards will also help.
CCTV cameras are being used in every corner. Hotel owners must check ID cards of all guests and keep records safe.
The aim is simple — no risk for devotees.
Traffic Rules: Big Block on Reengus-Khatu Route
From October 31 to November 1, the Reengus-Khatu route will remain a No-Vehicle Zone. Authorities will not allow personal cars near the temple. People must use parking spots far from the main area. From there, they can walk or use public transport arranged by the fair team.
Light cars will go to a parking zone near Shahpura. Buses will have fixed points on Mandha Road. If the road gets too busy, they will take the Aloda-Govti path.
Separate teams will handle entry, exit, and crowd flow.
Cleanliness and Help Desks Ready
Authorities are setting up clean water points, toilets, and help booths. Medical vans and fire teams will stay active. A control room will monitor all emergency needs.
Khatu is ready for the grand celebration of Baba Shyam’s birthday. Devotees planning a visit must stay alert and follow these rules to avoid last-minute trouble.
