The Ayodhya police have intensified their vigilance in the city after unearthing a prostitution racket, conducting extensive searches in about 20 hotels. The operation, undertaken late Wednesday night, resulted in no additional illegal activities, officials reported on Thursday.
Authorities have cautioned hotel owners to ensure stringent identification checks for guests and to report any suspicious occurrences. This follows last week's police raid on a guesthouse, which led to the busting of a sex racket and the arrest of 14 suspects, including 11 women.
In light of the Navratri festival, police presence has been escalated. Operational teams are actively monitoring hotels, guesthouses, and homestays across the twin towns of Ayodhya and Faizabad, with a stern warning of strict action against any anti-social activities, as emphasized by Senior Superintendent of Police Gaurav Grover.
