Dear Dr.Arun Panat,

Thanks for the links. I shall certainly go through them.

Thanks again.

Scot Phelps

Most of the research into crowd management has been done in the UK as the result of football deaths. You should start there. In addition, there has been a lot of work done to make the Haj safer over the past 20 years, so there is probably a literature base there as well. I did some preliminary research about 10 years ago in to the subject, sorry I can't be more specific.

Regards,

Scot

Dear Dr.Scot Phelps,

Thanks for the leads. We shall certainly look into them. The fact is that the venue at Nashik where Kumbh Mela is to be held over a period of one year with peak crowd on specific days poses several distinct problems.The narrow roads, the beliefs of the people, communication problems etc., compound the task. However, the techniques used can be suitably modified for the forthcoming event in 2015-16.

Thanks Dr. Shian-Loong Bernard Lew. We shall go through.

Most welcome & all the best!

Dr.Ali Anjomshoae,

Thanks! We shall go through. We feel that more than the technology, it is the management which need to be tutored and geared up better.

On many occasions, the rules are violated and simple principles are not followed.
