Hindu organisations hold Mahapanchayat in Uttarkashi amid tight security my uttarakhand news | DEHRADUN BJP MLA from Hyderabad T Raja Singh -popularly known as Tiger Raja Singh, called for unity among Hindus and made some remarks directed at Uttarakhand chief minister Pushkar Singh Dhami, suggesting that he should emulate his Uttar Pradesh counterpart. Addressing the crowd at a Mahapanchayat in Uttarkashi on Sunday, Singh stated that he had traveled from Hyderabad to Uttarakhand to “awaken” the people. He rallied the gathering around the slogan ‘Batenge toh Katenge’, urging the community to stand united. During his speech, he praised Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath for his firm actions against illegal mazars and mosques, suggesting that Dhami could learn from Adityanath’s governance. Singh remarked that Dhami should engage in a discussion with Yogi over tea to better understand his strategies. Singh said this at a Mahapanchayat held by Hindu organisations in Uttarkashi on Sunday drawing attention to an ongoing dispute over a mosque in the district. Several prominent leaders participated in the gathering, including the Mahapanchayat which led to a heightened security presence in Uttarkashi, with police and administrative authorities on alert to prevent any untoward incidents. According to the police, the town was divided into seven zones and 15 sectors and additional police forces were deployed. Traffic in and around the area was diverted and strict surveillance measures were implemented to monitor movement within the town, as per the officials. The controversy surrounding the mosque began months ago when some Hindu organisations labeled it as illegal. This led to a Janakrosh Rally, which increased communal tensions in the district. Following the rally, police registered cases against eight named individuals and 200 unidentified participants. Additional forces were brought in to maintain peace, and the police increased surveillance across the district. The situation in Uttarkashi remains sensitive, with the administration working to ensure harmony amid the escalating dispute. Authorities have appealed to all parties to approach the issue with restraint and seek a peaceful resolution.
