The Ayodhya district management on Friday denied the permission for the maha rally to BJP MP Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, which was scheduled for June 5.

Notably, the chief of the Wrestling Federation of India has been accused of sexually abusing female grapplers. Several well-known wrestlers, including Vinesh Phogat, Bajrang Punia, and Sakshi Malik, have been protesting Singh’s alleged sexual exploitation since April 23.

According to a statement made by Circle Officer (Ayodhya) SP Gautam, “The permission sought by BJP councillor Chamela Devi on behalf of Singh has been denied in light of other programmes scheduled on the World Environment Day on June 5.”

In a Facebook post, Singh explained that the continuing police investigation into the wrestlers’ allegations against him was the reason he had postponed the “Jan Chetna Maharally” at the Ram Katha Park for “a few days.”
