The Jaipur Police on Thursday said strict security arrangements have been made for 'Kanwar Yatra' and drones will be deployed to monitor its routes.
The yatra starts from Jaipur's Galta Teerth to various temples in the city during the holy month of Shravan.
The police said tight security arrangements have been made in view of the murder of a tailor in Udaipur on June 28.
"Special arrangements will be there to monitor the situation throughout the month. It will be ensured that the yatra is held peacefully," a police official said.
Stalls will be set up at the identified places where sound broadcasting equipment will not be installed without permission.
No DJs will be allowed during the yatra, the officer said. Along with this, security survey will be done by drone. The traffic police will be on high alert during these days.
Kanwariyas (Shiva devotees) fetch water from holy places like Galta Teerth in Jaipur to offer it at Shiva temples.
