News Desk: Case lodged against Samajwadi Party Yuvjan Sabha State president Bhavesh Yadav and 8-10 others by a resident of Sambhal for upsetting followers of Adityanth by purifying places, by sprinkling Gangajal, where Adityanath visited in Sambhal district.
The case was registered under IPC Sections 153A (promoting disharmony, enmity or feelings of hatred), 295A (deliberate and malicious intention of outraging religious feelings) and 505 (intent to incite, or which is likely to incite, any class or community of persons to commit any offence against any other class or community). Mr. Yadav was sent to 14-day judicial custody.
Yogi Adityanath addressed a public meeting at Kaila Devi in Sambhal district on Tuesday. A day later, Mr. Yadav and Samajwadi Party Yuvjan Sabha workers sprinkled Gangajal at that venue.
Talking to the media during the exercise, Mr. Yadav claimed that he conducted the purification drive as Mr. Adityanath has insulted Maa Kaila Devi by not visiting the temple when he was here.
