Motihari: East Champaran DM Saurabh Jorwal has ordered the closure of all educational institutions, including private and govt schools, coaching centres and anganwadi centres on July 18 in view of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's rally in Motihari. Speaking to reporters, the DM said the decision was made to manage the traffic congestion in urban and rural areas due to the high turnout expected for the PM's public meeting. The order was issued under Section 163 of the Indian Civil Security Code, 2023. "There is a possibility of a huge crowd gathering at the venue and surrounding areas once the PM arrives," he said. Senior BJP leaders, including both deputy CMs and the party's state president Dilip Jaiswal, have claimed that three to four lakh people will attend the Motihari rally, calling it a "historic" event. DM Jorwal said the railways would run special trains from various directions to facilitate travel from Sheohar, Muzaffarpur, Sahebganj, West Champaran, Ghorasan and Raxaul. Union minister of state for coal, Satish Chandra Dubey, added that people from Bagaha and Valmikinagar would also be attending. SP Swarn Prabhat said extensive security and traffic arrangements had been made for the PM's visit. "Preparations are in the final stages. The entire town is on high alert," he said. A revised traffic route plan and a list of 10 designated parking areas have been issued to ensure smooth movement and crowd control. The SP added that while attendees will be permitted to carry mobile phones, bags and water bottles will not be allowed inside the venue. Drinking water facilities will be available at multiple points, including inside the main hangar.
