VHP put up posters at Navratri Garba venues in MP saying, ‘No Entry for Non-Hindu’.

Chandan Sharma, VHP’s Dharm Prachar Vibhag district secretary for Ratlam, said non-Hindu men indulge in objectionable activities by entering the garba pandals where dance is performed hailing Goddess Durga.

PTI | Ratlam (Madhya Pradesh) | Oct 12, 2021::  The Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) has put up posters prohibiting the entry of “non-Hindus” in the pandals where Garba dance is performed hailing Goddess Durga during the ongoing Navratri festival in Madhya Pradesh’s Ratlam district to avoid the repeat of “controversial incidents” of the last year, a functionary of the organisation said on Monday.

The VHP said it has placed the posters stating the “entry of non-Hindus is prohibited” across 56 pandals.

Chandan Sharma, VHP’s Dharm Prachar Vibhag district secretary for Ratlam, said non-Hindu men indulge in objectionable activities by entering the garba pandals where dance is performed hailing Goddess Durga.

“The entry of non-Hindu youths had led to controversies at many places last year. By putting up such posters, non-Hindu people are being told not to enter the garba and Durga pandals so that such incidents can be avoided,” he said.

Mr Sharma said VHP workers are placing such posters with the consent of the festival organising committees.
