The programme, Shivmahapuran Katha, was held at village Mhaispur between May 5 and May 11.

They have been booked under Indian Penal Code sections, including 270 (an act that is likely to spread a disease dangerous to life) and 188 (disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant, he said.

The organisers also allegedly violated rules governing control of noise pollution, he added.
