And this is necessary in the current situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The High Court has also constituted a 3-member committee to ensure compliance with the measures given by the Mamta government. This includes the Leader of the Opposition in the Bengal Legislative Assembly or his representative, the Chairman of the Bengal Human Rights Commission, and representatives of the State. Along with this, the court appealed to the people to encourage e-bathing instead of taking a dip in the Ganges during the fair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also read: <strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caravanalive.com\/fcra-renewal-5968-ngos-including-jamia-ima-iit-delhi-license-expires-no-relief-for-moc-too\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FCRA Renewal: 5968 NGOs Including Jamia, IMA, IIT-Delhi License Expires; No Relief For MoC Too<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.caravanalive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/jpg_20220105_202144_0000-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-138335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.caravanalive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/jpg_20220105_202144_0000-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.caravanalive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/jpg_20220105_202144_0000-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.caravanalive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/jpg_20220105_202144_0000-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.caravanalive.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/jpg_20220105_202144_0000.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A bench headed by Chief Justice Prakash Srivastava directed the Home Secretary of the state to strictly follow the rules of Corona during the fair.
