Neja fair not be be organised in Sambhal

Sambhal (UP), Mar 17 (UNI) Sambhal police administration on Monday said that permission will not be given for the Neja fair, which is held every year in memory of Syed Salar Masood Ghazi.
In the meeting of the Neja Mela Committee on Sunday, it was decided to plant the shield of the fair on Tuesday, for which a procession was to start from Chaman Sarai Mohalla and reach in front of the police station via the prescribed routes. The shield of Neja Mela was to go there.
On Monday, a meeting of the Neja Mela Committee was held in Sambhal Kotwali with Additional Superintendent of Police (ASP) Shrishchand. In the meeting, the ASP said that Syed Salar Masood Ghazi was a robber and permission to organise a fair in the name of a robber will not be given under any circumstances.
The ASP said if a fair is to be organised, then one should talk to the magistrate. In the meeting, the members of the Mela Committee said that religious events are held here, on which the ASP said it was wrong.
He said it is a bad practice which they are doing out of ignorance. "A person who looted the Somnath temple, looted the country's property, and How can we support those who massacred people? Ghaznavi's nephew Masood Ghazi had committed atrocities in India. If some evil practice has been going on for years, then it needs to be changed". UNI XC AB SSP
