Shameful incident for Chhatrapati’s Maharashtra
Tourists found holding drunken parties at the fort

Mahad (Maharashtra) – It has come to light that tourists have been holding drunken parties at Raigad Fort. More than 50 empty bottles of liquor were found piled up in the fort area. Fort lovers, local citizens and followers of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj expressed anger over the incident. Along with liquor bottles, plastic waste and large-scale uncleanliness were also seen.

Followers of Shivaji Maharaj have alleged that such incidents occur because tourists and their belongings are not thoroughly checked at the main entry gates of the fort. The followers and locals have demanded that every tourist visiting the fort should undergo strict checking at the entrance gates, the number of security guards at the fort should be increased immediately, CCTV cameras should be installed in the fort premises and behind major historical structures, prohibition notices against liquor should be displayed prominently, and strict action should be taken against violators by registering criminal cases against them.
