Hindutva group complained: Uttar Pradesh bans Muslims’ Urs event
cancel

Ayodhya: In Uttar Pradesh’s Ayodhya, local administration has banned an annual Urs ceremony after the right-wing Hindutva group Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) filed a complaint against the event. The Ayodhya administration banned the event, claiming that there are potential law and order concerns, PTI reported, citing officials' accounts.

The Urs ceremony taking place here for the past two decades was scheduled for Saturday and Sunday.

Following a complaint by the Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP), the Ayodhya administration cancelled the permission for the 'Dada Miya Urs', which is held every year at the Dada Miya Mazaar in the Khanpur Masodha area.

According to sources, local VHP members Lalji Sharma and Suryakant Pandey lodged a complaint with the police, claiming a gathering was being organised in the name of “Ghazi Baba” in Khanpur Masodha.

Police investigation claimed that the organisers obtained permission from the local administration to organise the Urs under the name “Urs Dada Miya”. However, they were found collecting donations by printing receipts under the name “Ghazi Baba Urs”.

The complainants also claimed that during Urs, the organisers invite some clerics who allegedly perform “black magic” and “misguide” people.

"The permission granted under the name ‘Urs Dada Miya' has been revoked as it was found that Urs under the name of Ghazi Baba was being planned," Circle Officer Ashutosh Tiwari said.

Meanwhile, no office-bearers of the Urs organising committee have commented on the issue so far.
