Judicial Inquiry: He ordered a judicial probe into the incident, establishing a three-member judicial commission headed by former Judge Harsh Kumar, with former DGP VK Gupta and retired IAS officer DK Singh, to investigate the causes of the stampede and suggest preventive measures. This commission was tasked to submit its report within a month.
Compensation for Victims: Adityanath announced a financial assistance of Rs 25 lakh each to the families of those who lost their lives in the incident.
Crowd Management:
No-Vehicle Zone: He declared the Maha Kumbh area a "no-vehicle zone" until February 4, 2025, to manage crowd flow better, especially in anticipation of another major bathing festival, Basant Panchami.
Cancellation of VIP Passes: All VIP and VVIP privileges were canceled to ensure equal access and reduce congestion caused by special protocols.
Enhanced Security and Personnel Deployment:
Additional security personnel from various paramilitary forces like the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP), Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), Special Security Force (SSF), and Border Security Force were deployed following a request from the state government.
Administrative Advisories:
He urged devotees to take their holy dip at the nearest ghat instead of rushing towards the Sangam Nose, where the stampede occurred, to disperse the crowd more evenly across available areas.
Adityanath also advised devotees not to heed rumors, emphasizing that the situation was under control but acknowledged the high pressure due to the massive crowd.
Rumors and Public Communication: He made public appeals via social media and press briefings to maintain calm, not spread or believe rumors, and follow administrative guidelines closely.

These measures reflect an effort to enhance safety, manage crowds more effectively, and ensure a smoother experience for the millions of devotees attending the Maha Kumbh Mela.
