The police are using different medium to verify the authenticity, timing, and identity of the people seen in the video. The men seen in the video have been identified, the cops said, adding legal action will be taken against the persons concerned.
The Rudraprayag police have also appealed to the general public not to share or broadcast this video. Doing so will be considered a violation of law along with hurting the dignity and sanctity of the religious place.
It is the responsibility of every citizen to maintain the dignity of a holy place like Kedarnath. Such acts committed by some anti-social elements not only hurt religious beliefs but also spread a wrong message in the entire society, said the cops.
Devotees and tourists have also been urged maintain decency at Kedarnath Dham and avoid any kind of inappropriate activities. They also requested the devotees and tourists to report any suspicious activity.
