New Delhi: Narendra Modi is unlikely to attend the Art of Living’s mega World Culture Festival organised by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. Security concerns are being reportedly cited as the reason for Modi’s nonattendance.
According to news reports, the Special Protection Group, which provides security to the Prime Minister, has cited security concerns.
This agency reportedly fears a major stampede as there are no proper plans for emergency evacuation of the place.
The event is yet to get security, traffic, fire, and structural safety clearances. According to police officials, several issues were raised with the organisers but there was a serious lack of coordination.
He was scheduled to inaugurate the event on February 11.
