Speaking on the matter, the head priest of Swami Paramhans Ashram Sagara Babuganj, Mauni Ji Maharaj, said that raising such slogans in front of the police station creates an atmosphere of fear in the region. “I demand immediate action in the matter from Chief Minister Yogi Adtiyanath and the district administration so that the evil intentions of such elements can be stopped,” he added.

Targeting the Islamists, he said, “The roots of such elements extend to Pakistan. These people intend to cause communal violence in India and destroy the ‘Ganga-Jamuni’ culture. Hence, immediate action should be taken.” Mouni Maharaj added there could be a political conspiracy behind such acts and anti-social elements who are under political protection want to create conflict between Hindus and Muslims.
