The Jharkhand Police on Friday said it has registered an FIR against the BJP leaders for entering the inner shrine of the temple on August 2 despite a restriction on the entry of VIP or VVIPs during the holy month of ‘Shravan’, when the temple sees the influx of a large number of devotees.
The FIR was lodged on August 7 under various sections of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita after a complaint by temple priest Kartik Nath Thakur. The priest, in the complaint, accused Dubey and Manoj Tiwari of "forcibly entering the inner shrine on August 2 between 8.45 pm and 9 pm” despite a restriction on the VIP entry.
The “forcible entry” by the MPs and “scuffle” with policemen resulted in causing fear and panic among devotees and a stampede-like situation, the complaint read.
