										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Uttarakhand Police has said that it won&#8217;t allow people to come to the holy city to celebrate Kanwar Yatra, which has been banned by the state government. The pilgrimage is scheduled to start from July 25.</p>
<p>As Kanwar Yatra is banned, no person will be allowed to enter Haridwar border for celebrations. Same applies to buses and trains,&#8221; said Ashok Kumar, Uttarakhand director general of police, as reported by news agency ANI.</p>
<p>He added that tourists from other parts of state won&#8217;t be stopped, but they will have to submit RT-PCR test report and register on Smart City portal before coming to Haridwar.</p>
<p>&#8220;Forces have been deployed on the borders of Haridwar district. Instructions are to request those coming to the border to go back. If anyone persists, action will be taken,&#8221; Kumar said.</p>
<p>If anyone sends a tanker in a systematic way, we will help them in collecting Gangajal, the police chief added.</p>
<p>The Har Ki Pauri ghat (river bank) in Haridwar has been sealed for Kanwariyas from July 24 to August 6. The decision was taken during an inter-state border meeting in Haridwar in which officers of Uttar Pradesh, Himachal, Punjab, Delhi and Haryana were present.</p>
