Security strengthened in Sabarimala for two days

SABARIMALA: The security arrangements have been beefed up in Sabarimala ‘sannidhanam’ and Pamba for two days starting Thursday.

On theses days, Ayyappa devotees will have to undergo fool-proof security check in order to enter ‘sannidhanam’. However the new arrangement will not create any hassle for the devotees, Sannidhanam Special Police officer P N Unnirajan has said. No other restriction will be imposed on ‘darshan’.

“All temple staff in civil dress will have to wear ID badge. ID cards have been distributed to all those who have applied for the ID card, subject to proper verification,” Devaswam Vigilance SI R Prashant said.
