An Uttar Pradesh police initiative to dress their personnel in priest’s attire: rudraksha mala, orange kurta, dhoti and tripund (three lines made of sandalwood) on the forehead inside the Kashi Vishwanath temple in Varanasi has gone viral on social media. It received mixed responses.
The Varanasi police stationed six of its personnel: two females and four males wearing priest’s attire inside the Sanctum Santorum of the famous temple to help with the management of the devotees.
