Ghaziabad police have booked Dasna Devi temple priest Yati Narsinghanad for allegedly making objectionable remarks against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other prominent figures.
In a purported video, Narsinghanand can be head criticising king Prithviraj Chauhan and the PM with regard to the treatment of different communities.
SP (Rural) Iraj Raja said, “Through social media, a video came to our attention in which the mahant of the Dasna Devi mandir, Yati Narsinghanand, made objectionable remarks against the Prime Minister and
others. Taking this video into account, a case has been registered at the Masuri police station and further action will be taken.”
A case has been registered under IPC sections 153a (promoting enmity between different groups) and 295a (deliberate act intended to outrage religious feelings.) Narsinghanand could not be reached for comment.
A few days ago, Ghaziabad police issued a notice to Narsinghanand, directing him not to hold a planned three-day Dharam Sansad on December 17 or a preparatory meeting before the same.
