Eveready Torches boost Maha Kumbh security measures

To ensure the safety and security of millions of devotees attending the Maha Kumbh Mela 2025, the Maha Kumbh Police has partnered with Eveready Industries India Ltd. As part of this initiative, police personnel deployed at the grand event will be equipped with 5,000 Eveready Siren Torches, a cutting-edge flashlight featuring a powerful safety alarm. The torches aim to bolster crowd management and enhance security measures across the event’s sprawling grounds.

Safety norms will also be rigorously implemented at the 56 police stations within the Mela premises, further strengthening efforts to ensure a seamless and secure experience for the estimated 400 million pilgrims expected to attend the holy event.
