During the sacred month of Sawan, the holy Kanwar Yatra is underway, and today, Uttar Pradesh's Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath warmly welcomed the Kanwar Yatris in Meerut. CM Yogi showered them with flowers and expressed heartfelt greetings to all Shiv devotees bringing holy Ganga water from Haridwar. The Uttar Pradesh government respects the faith and devotion of pilgrims, ensuring robust and comprehensive arrangements for their convenience. Every measure is taken to provide safety and ease in traffic for the devotees.
While CM Yogi is showering flowers on the Kanwar Yatris, reports from different cities depict their unruly behavior. In some places, they are causing destruction, while in others, they are engaging in fights. Today, along with showering flowers, CM Yogi issued a stern warning. He stated that strict action will be taken against those causing unrest among the Kanwar Yatris or conspiring in their name.
CRPF Jawan Brutally Beaten
Questions arise about this religious pilgrimage, where devotees of Bhole Baba are attacking a CRPF jawan. How is this devotion where Kanwar Yatris target a soldier? At Mirzapur Railway Station, a CRPF jawan was trying to purchase a ticket when an argument with Kanwar Yatris escalated into violence. Subsequently, eight to ten Kanwar Yatris brutally beat the jawan, throwing him to the ground and launching into a furious assault. The railway police registered the case, and reports indicate that seven Kanwar Yatris have been arrested.
Innova Car Rampage
A similar incident surfaced from Saharanpur, where a minor collision with an Innova car triggered a violent reaction from the Kanwar Yatris, who wrecked the vehicle. The confrontation took place in front of the police, who struggled to calm the Yatris.
CM Yogi's Stern Message
Scenes of chaos caused by Kanwar Yatris are emerging from various parts of the country, and CM Yogi appeared resolute today against the troublemakers. He firmly stated that complete solutions would be implemented against those causing unrest after the Kanwar Yatra. He also mentioned that those causing disturbances in the name of Kanwar Yatra aim to tarnish its image, which is a deep conspiracy.
What Did Minister Giriraj Singh Say?
CM Yogi isn’t the only leader believing in a plot to defame the Kanwar Yatris. Union Minister Giriraj Singh also believes in the conspiracy against Kanwar Yatris, stating that it's an attempt by the opposition to marginalize Sanatan and Hindu traditions.
Government Should Act Against Troublemakers: Ramgopal Yadav
The political scene surrounding Kanwar Yatris intensifies. The Samajwadi Party demands government action against the troublemakers. SP MP Ramgopal Yadav said CM Yogi showered flowers, respecting his beliefs, but action should be taken against the Kanwar Yatris causing unrest. The Samajwadi Party even suggests the registration of Kanwar Yatris, similar to the Amarnath Yatra, to properly identify them.
Government Must Investigate Conspiracy: ST Hasan
Samajwadi Party leader ST Hasan urged the government to investigate if the unrest within the Kanwar Yatra is a conspiracy. He questions if they infiltrated to defame the Kanwar pilgrimage. If so, appropriate action should be taken.
Some SP Members Causing Trouble: Keshav Prasad
While the Samajwadi Party demands identifying and punishing troublemakers, UP's Deputy CM suggests SP members have infiltrated the Kanwar Yatra, causing disruptions. Deputy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya stated that the pilgrimage is proceeding well with true devotees, but some SP members might have entered, causing trouble. Amid the Yatra, with fervent flower showers and chants to Bhole Baba, a fierce political scenario also unfolds.
