Later, it was decided to provide the passes from the office in Alkapuri on Sunday. And messages were circulated on social media to collect the passes from the office. Following that, people thronged the place in big numbers to collect the passes, resulting in chaos.“Following the incident, we asked the agency to drop the idea of physically distributing the passes to those who did not get it. And it was decided that they will be given entry by scanning the QR code they received while booking,” said the official.Deputy Commissioner of Police (Zone1) Jagdish Chavda confirmed the incident, but added that no police action had been taken as there was no complaint.Stay updated with the latest - Click here to follow us on Instagram© The Indian Express Pvt LtdTags:Navratri
