SAMBA, June 8: Deputy Commissioner Samba, Abhishek Sharma, chaired a meeting today in the Conference Hall, mini secretariat to review the preparations for the annual mela at Baba Chamliyal Shrine.

The Power Development Department (PDD) was also directed to ensure proper lighting arrangements and uninterrupted power supply throughout the mela days. Emphasizing the importance of sanitation, DC directed for the installation of an adequate number of dustbins at the shrine venues to manage the expected large crowds.
The Tourism department was asked to install hoardings and banners at various locations to guide and inform the devotees. Security arrangements, fire and emergency preparedness, traffic regulation, and the deployment of health officials were thoroughly reviewed. *Special attention was given to the installation of lights and the establishment of Lost and Found counter.* A committee was formed to monitor the quality and pricing of food items available at the mela. Additionally, different departments were instructed to set up stalls to educate visiting devotees about various government schemes and welfare programs. ADC Samba has already chaired a review meeting on 16/05/2024 on the directions of DC Samba to ensure a successful and well-organized mela, facilitating a seamless experience for the large number of devotees expected at the Baba Chamliyal Shrine.
