Vijayawada Dasara celebrations conclude peacefully with CCTV surveillance, advanced technology and comprehensive police security at Indrakeeladri.

Vijayawada: The Dasara Sharannavaratri celebrations of Sri Durga Malleswara Swamy at Indrakeeladri in Vijayawada concluded peacefully, with the city police implementing comprehensive security arrangements to facilitate smooth darshan for devotees. Under the leadership of Vijayawada City Police Commissioner S. V. Rajasekhara Babu, IPS, special measures were taken to prioritise ordinary devotees and ensure their convenient access to the temple.

The police coordinated with various government departments and effectively utilised modern technology to monitor the arrangements throughout the festival. Special attention was given to the busy Moola Nakshatram and Vijayadashami days, when large numbers of devotees visited the temple. Preventive measures were implemented to avoid stampedes and other untoward incidents and to help devotees have a peaceful darshan of the Goddess.

Continuous Surveillance Through CCTV Command Centre

The police monitored key areas of the city through the CCTV Command and Control Centre established at the Model Guest House. The surveillance system helped officials keep track of crowd movement and security conditions in important locations.

Police Commissioner S. V. Rajasekhara Babu personally visited areas experiencing heavy crowds, including Seethamma Vari Paadalu Ghat and the surroundings of Vinayaka Temple. During these visits, he issued necessary instructions to police officers and personnel deployed on security duty to ensure effective crowd management.

Security Arrangements for Teppotsavam

Special attention was also given to security arrangements for the Teppotsavam, or float festival, organised at Durga Ghat on the banks of the Krishna River on the occasion of Vijayadashami.

The Police Commissioner participated in the procession of the Goddess's festival idols held ahead of the float festival, accompanied by other police officials. The arrangements aimed to facilitate the smooth conduct of the religious celebrations and maintain order in areas witnessing large gatherings of devotees.

Welfare of Police Personnel Given Priority

Alongside festival security, attention was given to the welfare and well-being of police officers and personnel who worked long hours to ensure the successful conduct of the celebrations. Necessary facilities were provided to support personnel deployed on duty.

Police personnel expressed their gratitude to the Commissioner for giving importance to their welfare while overseeing the arrangements for the festival.

The coordinated efforts of the police, interdepartmental cooperation, CCTV surveillance and continuous monitoring played an important role in managing security during the Dasara celebrations at Indrakeeladri.
