Shankaracharya Avimukteshwaranand sat on strike after the clash between the police and the saint’s followers during the ongoing Magh Mela in Prayagraj. Meanwhile, he has got the support of Computer Baba. Computers are protesting by lying on the ground at the protest site in support of Baba Shankaracharya.

Let us tell you that Swami Avimukteshwarananda was asking to go to Prayagraj Sangam Nose, but due to the huge crowd there, he was refused to go. After this Shankaracharya went to that area with his 200 people. Police allege that his followers tried to move forward by breaking the security barrier.

What did Computer Baba say during the protest?

Computer Baba asked while lying on the ground, what is happening in the country today? Saints, Shankaracharya and Sanatan are being insulted. He said that today in the month of Magh, saints are being mistreated inside Prayagraj. He said that it is CM Yogi’s government. These people say that we are Sanatani.

He said that I want to ask the public whether this is a government program. He asked whether it is the Magh month of the government or the Magh month of saints. Therefore, I request everyone to come together and oppose the government which is disrespecting our saints. He further said that we strongly protest against the insult done to Shankaracharya here.

Sanjay Singh said on stopping Shankaracharya

AAP MP Sanjay Singh said that this is not just an incident of stopping a devout saint, it is a picture of trampling on constitutional and religious norms. The police stopping Dharmacharya Shankaracharya Maharaj Swami Avimukteshwaranand and scuffling with his supporters is a direct display of arrogance of the government.

He further said that BJP and its ruled police have today become the watchmen of political orders and not of law. The same government which does politics under the guise of religion on a daily basis, is today behaving like this with a globally respected and widely remembered Shankaracharya. If this is not the double character of BJP then what is it?

Sanjay Singh targeted UP Police

The police of Uttar Pradesh is no longer governed by the Constitution but by power. Stop those asking questions, suppress those who oppose, and crush every dissent in the name of ‘law and order’, this is the BJP model. Freedom of religion, thought and expression is now being attacked openly. The country is watching all this.

The clash that took place between the police and the followers of a saint in Prayagraj during the Magh Mela now seems to be becoming a big deal. Swami Avimukteshwaranand’s troubles may increase in this entire episode. The administration has clearly stated that the conduct was against tradition without permission and action will be taken on the basis of CCTV footage.

Prayagraj Police Commissioner Jogendra Kumar said that Swami Avimukteshwarananda reached the area around 9 am with about 200 of his followers, which was closed a day earlier due to security reasons. His followers tried to move forward by breaking the barrier and there was a scuffle with the police. CCTV footage of this entire incident is available.

Swamy’s supporters kept the road closed for three hours

According to the Police Commissioner, Swami Avimukteshwaranand was insisting on going to Sangam Nose, even though there was a huge crowd there at that time. Due to fog in the morning, the Sangam area is most crowded between 9 and 10 am. The police tried to explain that moving forward with 200 people and a chariot could lead to a stampede, but they did not agree. It is alleged that his supporters tried to create chaos by pushing small children forward and the return route was also blocked for about three hours, causing a lot of trouble to the common people.

Swamy’s supporters clash with police

Prayagraj District Magistrate Manish Kumar Verma said that contrary to tradition, he (Swami Avimukteshwaranand) had come on his palanquin without permission to take bath at the Sangam. There was a huge crowd at the Sangam at that time. Despite repeated requests, they came here without permission and remained adamant on their insistence, this was wrong. Many other aspects have also come to our notice that his supporters broke barriers and scuffled with the police, so we are investigating the entire matter. We will investigate all aspects and take legal action.

Avimukteshwaranand had brought the palanquin without any permission.

Divisional Commissioner of Prayagraj Division Soumya Aggarwal said that Swami Avimukteshwaranand had come here with about 200 of his followers riding on his palanquin, contrary to tradition and without any permission, there was a huge crowd at the Sangam. There was a crowd of crores here, they broke the barrier and blocked our return route for 3 hours which caused a lot of inconvenience to the common people.
