Nainital Police have registered an FIR against unidentified persons for conducting a purification ceremony at the venue where Congress national president Mallikarjun Kharge held a rally. The move follows repeated demands by the Congress party for action against those responsible for the ritual.

The purification ceremony had drawn criticism from the Congress, which viewed it as an affront to the party and its leadership. The police action came after sustained pressure from party leaders to investigate and act against those involved in the incident.
