Ban imposed on tourism, bathing near rivers in Solan amid monsoon alert

Solan, June 27 (UNI) In view of public safety during the monsoon season, District Magistrate Solan Manmohan Sharma has imposed restrictions on movement and activities near rivers, streams, and ravines under Section 163 of the Indian Civil Defence Code, 2023.
The order bans all unauthorised tourism and commercial activities in and around Ashwini Khad and Shani temple on the banks of the Giri river at Giripul in Ser Baneda, a revenue village in Solan tehsil.
Bathing and picnicking along the banks of Ashwini Khad and the Giri river have also been strictly prohibited.
The administration highlighted that heavy rainfall during the monsoon can lead to a sudden rise in river water levels, posing a serious risk to life, especially for tourists who often venture close to water bodies.
The District Magistrate has directed the local police to enforce the ban in coordination with the District Tourism Officer. These precautionary orders take immediate effect and will remain in force for the next two months.
Any violation will invite legal action. Authorities have urged residents and tourists to adhere to the guidelines for their own safety during the rainy season.
