Police in Shravasti, Uttar Pradesh, seized a large cache of counterfeit currency being printed in a madrasa, raising fears of financial infiltration during the upcoming Mahakumbh religious gathering. The discovery of fake notes worth Rs 34,500, along with genuine currency, printing equipment, and an illegal firearm, has prompted authorities to investigate the potential link to the Mahakumbh's financial activities.
With billions of rupees expected to be exchanged during the Mahakumbh , authorities are investigating whether the counterfeit currency operation was aimed at infiltrating the event's financial activities.
Preparations for the Mahakumbh are in full swing, with increased security measures being implemented amidst reported threats. Concerns over the circulation of counterfeit currency during the event have also emerged, as a significant haul of fake notes was recently seized from a madrasa in Shravasti, just 265 kilometers from Prayagraj.
Shravasti is located just 265 kilometers from Prayagraj, a distance that can be covered in six hours. The proximity adds to the speculation surrounding the motive behind the fake currency production. Shravasti police, in collaboration with the SOG , raided a madrasa in the Malhipur area and seized counterfeit notes worth Rs 34,500, along with Rs 14,500 in genuine currency. Five individuals were arrested during the operation.
The raid also led to the confiscation of one printer, two laptops, bottles of ink, an illegal firearm, cartridges, and other electronic equipment. The team responsible for uncovering this fake currency racket will be rewarded Rs 25,000 for their efforts.
