Nuh administration denies permission to Hindus to resume Braj Mandal Jalabhishek Yatra [ Haryana, India ]

[ Reported as seen ]

On Tuesday, August 22, the Hindus were denied permission to  resume its Braj Mandal Jalabhishek Yatra on August 28 which was earlier met with tremendous burst of violence by an Islamist mob on July 31st.

This comes after a Hindu “maha panchayat” in Pondri village in Palwal resolved on August 13 to resume the Jalabhishek yatra from Nalhar temple in Nuh on August 28. Narender Bijarnia, the Nuh Superintendent of Police confirmed that the application for the procession’s permit had been turned down.

As per reports, Nuh District Commissioner Dhirendra Khadgata refused to grant permission to VHP for the Yatra citing various reasons including the G20 meeting scheduled to be held from September 3 in Tauru. The DC said that he dates of the G20 meeting and the Jalabhishek Yatra met. He further added that the permission has been denied in the wake of the prevailing situation in the Nuh district.

The Yatra was supposed to begin at Nuh’s Nalhar Mahadev Mandir, travel to Ferozepur Jhirka, and then stop in Singar in Punhana. However, it was halted and violence broke out about 3 km from the Nalhar temple.
