Security Scare at Kashi Tamil Sangamam as Man Breaches Perimeter Near Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath
A security concern emerged at Varanasi’s Kashi Tamil Sangamam when a suspicious man reached close to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s stage before being promptly removed by security personnel. The event featured key national and state leaders, prompting a review of security protocols.
The incident occurred at Namo Ghat, where the Chief Minister had arrived to inaugurate the cultural outreach programme aimed at strengthening ties between Tamil Nadu and Kashi. The event saw the attendance of several prominent dignitaries, including Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak, and the Governor of Tamil Nadu.
While the man’s intentions remain unclear, his proximity to the high-security dais raised immediate concerns. Security teams acted promptly, escorting him away from the restricted zone without disrupting the proceedings. Authorities are expected to review existing protocols and assess how the individual bypassed initial security layers.
The episode underscores the critical importance of stringent vigilance during high-profile public events, especially those involving senior political leaders. A detailed inquiry is likely to follow as officials work to strengthen preventive measures and uphold public safety in future gatherings.
