PECTIN also called Pentaerythritol Trinitrate and is very difficult to detect due to its plastic nature. This powerful explosive can pass through metal detectors and security check point.
In light of this incident CM Yogi Aditynath has called for a meeting to review the security situation in Uttar Pradesh. The state government has also beefed up security measures across the state, especially the areas close to where the Kanwar Yatra is in progress.
The CM has promised protection to the devotees who are participating in this religious event.
