The Uttar Pradesh Police said that it would not allow the conversion ceremony that is scheduled to be in Aligarh on December 25, media reports said.

The event is to be sponsored by Dharam Jagran Samanvyay Vibhag.

 

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Yogi Adityanath evinced his intention to attend the event dubbing it as “ghar wapsi” (home-coming), sources said.

 

“No such event will be allowed on the 25th, whether it is conversion or anything similar to it,” Deputy Inspector General of police-Aligarh Mohit Agarwal said.

 

The Bajrang Dal activists in Aligarh also promised to hit the streets in protest if the police did not allow the ceremony to take place, reports said.
