Row over invite to 3 Muslim MLAs for Har-ki-Pauri event

IndiaTimes Monday, 11 November 2024 ()
Controversy arose in Haridwar when the Ganga Sabha allegedly opposed the district administration's invitation to three Muslim MLAs for a state foundation day event at Har-ki-Pauri ghat. The Sabha cited a long-standing tradition and a 1935 rule prohibiting non-Hindus' entry. While the MLAs did not attend, the incident sparked debate about religious inclusivity at the sacred site.
