Bareilly police detained four people on Saturday and Sunday for allegedly selling non-vegetarian food on designated Kanwar Yatra routes during Sawan month. Two shopkeepers, Salman and Raees, were held near the old Roadways bus stand in Bahedi after a raid found chicken biryani being sold despite prior warnings. Two more were detained later near the bakery area. Authorities said the action followed administration directives barring meat, chicken, fish and other non-vegetarian items along pilgrimage corridors. Circle officer Arun Kumar Singh warned of further action for any violations.
