Andhra Pradesh: BJP opposes ‘curbs imposed’ on Vinayaka Chavithi celebrations

BJP Andhra Pradesh unit president Somu Veerraju on Sunday said that a delegation of the party would meet Governor Biswa Bhusan Harichandan on Monday, seeking removal of ‘the restrictions imposed on Vinayaka Chavithi celebrations’.

The State government has recently issued guidelines that various permissions should be taken without fail for Ganesh pandals and the celebrations. 

“The anti-Hindu policy of the government is evident from the restrictions imposed on the celebrations of Vinayaka Chavithi. We will bring the issues to the notice of the Governor,” Mr. Veerraju told the media here.

He said the BJP mandal committees would stage protests across the State, demanding ‘withdrawal of the restrictions’.
