What did IPS Vaibhav say?
This claim has also been denied by IPS DIG Kumbh Vaibhav Krishna, who is in charge of the security of the fair. He has said on his social media posts that this is absolutely wrong information. You are engaged in spreading rumours. The video you are showing is of our fire mock drill organized by Kumbh Mela Police a few days ago. If you disseminate any unverified information, strict legal action will be taken against you.
