Holi is a festival in India. It is known as the festival of colours. There are gatherings and parties on the streets. People celebrate all night.. Holi also brings some problems like drunk driving and fighting. The police knew this so they started taking precautions before the festival.
The police did a lot of raids and checks on vehicles and areas. They were looking for people who sell liquor and drugs. They also looked for people who have committed crimes before and are wanted by the police. The police said they got information from spies and local people to find these criminals.
The police arrested thousands of people. Took away illegal things like liquor and drugs. They also sent teams to areas where there could be problems. They wanted to make sure women are safe during Holi.
Senior police officers said they did this operation to prevent crimes from happening. They do not want anything to spoil the Holi celebrations. They said “we want people to celebrate Holi safely and without any problems. We will take action against people who break the law”.
The police also increased the number of patrols at night. They put up checkpoints on the roads. They checked if people are driving drunk. The police worked with people to tell them how to celebrate Holi safely.
The police also kept an eye on media. They looked for people who were planning to do something. They did not want anyone to spread information that could cause problems.
The Delhi Police have done operations before during big festivals like Diwali and New Years Eve.. This operation is one of the biggest ones they have done before Holi. It shows that the police are serious about keeping people safe during festivals.
