Lately, I’ve seen influencers climbing restricted areas or doing dramatic shoots at historical sites. It made me wonder if their content is helping promote culture or just causing harm. Should there be a ban or stricter rules for influencers at such places?

Lately, many religious places in India like Kedarnath, Mathura or Vrindavan, and Ayodhya are seeing more influencers than actual devotees. People are going there not for faith or prayer, but to click photos, shoot reels, and make content for social media. In Kedarnath, things got so out of hand that the temple authorities had to ban photography and videography. Some influencers were even dancing, doing stunts, or proposing inside the temple area. This made many people angry because it felt like disrespect to the place.
Because of this, many now believe that there should be strict rules for influencers at such places. It’s okay to take photos or share experiences, but when it starts disturbing the peace, hurting the culture, or turning sacred places into photo studios, it becomes a big problem. So yes, maybe not a complete ban, but there should definitely be clear rules to protect the respect and silence of these holy spots.
