Ujjain (Madhya Pradesh): With the increasing number of devotees during the final week of Shravan and the upcoming festivals, Ujjain Police have strengthened security measures in and around the Mahakaleshwar Temple.

On Saturday, additional police forces were deployed in the temple premises and surrounding sensitive areas. Mahakal Police Station officials carried out regular checking of suspicious individuals, monitored barricades, and increased patrolling with the help of women police personnel throughout the day.

CCTV cameras are being actively monitored to keep an eye on suspicious activities.
Mobile teams and help centers have also been set up near the temple to assist visitors.
