Udupi, Mar 9: Days after police booked her for 'provocative' speech at a similar event, VHP leader Sadhvi Balika Saraswati has been invited by the outfit to attend its Udupi 'Virat Hindu Samajotsav' today.

The invitation comes after VHP International Working President Pravin Togadia was banned yesterday for a week from entering Udupi district of Karnataka for the Hindu Samjotsava rally.

The organisers have also invited VHP All India Secretary Surendra Kumar Jain as the main speaker at the function, VHP sources said.

Recently a case was slapped against Saraswati from Madhya Pradesh who was the key speaker at the Hindu Samajotsava held here on March 1 for allegedly disturbing communal harmony through her 'provocative utterances'.

All arrangements had been made for the programme to be held at the MGM ground at Udupi tomorrow, they said.

Udupi Superintendent of Police Annamalai and Deputy Commissioner R Vishal are camping in the town to monitor the security arrangements for a peaceful conduct of the event.

Meanwhile, Sri Rama Sene leader Pramod Muthalik alleged at a press meet today that the state government was hurting the sentiments of Hindus by banning Togadia's entry.

He also said that a ban on Hindu leaders from attending functions was aimed at suppressing the efforts of Hindu outfits to unite the community.

Newsroom, May 2: The Delhi Police’s move to book Delhi Minorities Commission chairman Zafarul Islam Khan under sedition charges over his social media statement condemning Hindutva bigots has raised many eyebrows. 

A pubic statement has been issued in solidarity with Zafarul Islam Khan by a group of NGOs and citizens which condemned the media trial targeting Khan.

The statement demanded legal action against those who are distorting Khan's Facebook post and spreading false propaganda against him.

Delhi Police Special Cell registered the FIR against Khan on the complaint of a Vasant Kunj resident. The complaint came to the Lodhi Colony office of the special cell, after the assistant commissioner of police (ACP) Safdarjung Enclave forwarded it.

The investigation has been handed over to special cell inspector Praveen Kumar.

According to the FIR, Khan has been booked under several sections of the Indian Penal Code -- 124 A (sedition) and 153 A (Promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language, etc,).

Khan on April 28 had posted controversial comments on his Facebook page. "Mind you, bigots, Indian Muslims have opted until now not to complain to the Arab and Muslim world about your hate campaigns and lynchings and riots. The day they are pushed to do that, bigots will face an avalanche," Khan had written on Facebook.

However, the Delhi Minorities Commission's chief on Friday had apologised for his controversial remark and had said that he never tried to tarnish the image of India. He also removed the controversial post from the social media and issued a prolonged clarification.
