News Topical, Digital Desk : UP News : The fair/Urs held every year at the shrine of Syed Salar Sahu Ghazi, also known as Budhe Baba, located in Satrikh police station area in Barabanki district of Uttar Pradesh, will not be organized this time. According to Barabanki Police, the management committee of the shrine has decided to cancel this fair proposed from May 14 to May 18 to maintain peace and order. The district administration has also agreed to this decision and has not given permission for the event.
Appeal not to come to the fair
The management committee and administration have appealed to the devotees coming from Barabanki as well as districts like Lucknow, Kanpur, Ayodhya, Ambedkarnagar, Sultanpur, Amethi, Gonda, Hardoi, Unnao, Sitapur, Bahraich not to come to attend the fair this time. This decision has been taken to maintain law and order at the local level.
Subhaspa called the decision in national interest
Suheldev Bharatiya Samaj Party (SBSP) spokesperson Piyush Mishra welcomed the decision and called it in national interest. He said, "Now the worship of protectors will not be done of invaders." Describing Syed Salar Ghazi as a foreign invader, Mishra said that in a country like India, which is the land of Lord Shri Ram, Shri Krishna and Emperor Ashoka, organizing events in the name of such people is an insult to the culture.
'The event should be in the name of Maharaja Suheldev'
He stressed that if any event should be organized, it should be in the name of Chakravarti Emperor Maharaja Suheldev, who defeated a robber like Syed Salar Masood Ghazi along with his army and drove him out of the country. Mishra said, "This country is tolerant, but not memory-defective. Now there will be a celebration of the protectors, not glorification of the destroyers."
Permission was not given even in these districts
After Sambhal, Badaun, Bahraich, the fair was also cancelled in Barabanki
. The process of banning fairs held in the name of Syed Salar Ghazi continues in Uttar Pradesh. Earlier, the administration had banned similar fairs in Sambhal, Badaun and Bahraich. This controversy came into the limelight after the cancellation of Neja fair in Sambhal, where the police had clearly said that permission for a fair in the name of robbers will not be given.
Law and order was cited
The police cited the law and order situation as the main reason behind the cancellation of the fair in Barabanki. Many Hindu organizations had also opposed this fair, calling Syed Salar Sahu Ghazi the commander of Mahmud Ghaznavi and terming it wrong to organize a fair in his name.
