What is the whole matter?

Shankaracharya Swami Avimukteshwaranand claimed on Sunday (January 18) that during the Prayagraj Magh Mela on the occasion of Mauni Amavasya, the state administration stopped him from going towards Sangam Nose. He alleged that policemen stopped him midway while going to Sangam Ghat.

The situation became such that I and my followers were forced to return to our Akhara without taking the holy bath. According to Shankaracharya, his palanquin was stopped midway as senior police officers allegedly pushed his disciples and also misbehaved with them.
