In Sambhal, Uttar Pradesh, there is no vigilance for any kind of disturbance during Holi. Actually, the festival of Holi is on March 14 and on this day there will be prayers of Zuma. Therefore, considering the last few cases, the police have suggested in Sambhal, especially Muslims that if a Muslim feels that playing with the colors of Holi affects their faith, then they should stay indoors that day. Let us tell you that in the meeting of the peace committee held on Thursday at Sambhal Kotwali police station, Police Officer (CO) Anuj Chaudhary said that if anyone feels that his religion is corrupted by the color of Holi, then he should not leave the house that day. In the meeting, Anuj Chaudhary urged people of both communities to respect each other’s sentiments. Anuj Chaudhary told reporters after the peace committee meeting, “Just as Muslims eagerly wait for Eid, Hindus wait for Holi.” Let us also remind you that Anuj Chaudhary has been in the headlines since the survey of Shahi Masjid on 24 November. He was also seen in a religious procession in his uniform with the mace of Lord Hanuman. That episode was also investigated.
On the other hand, political controversy has arisen on their suggestion of Muslims to stay at home on the day of Holi. Samajwadi Party spokesperson Shavendra Bikram Singh said, “The officials are copying his words to remain in the eyes of the Chief Minister. Action should be taken against those making such statements and open parties. This is condemnable and officials should not act like an agent of BJP. ” At the same time, Manish Hindavi, vice -president of the media committee of the Uttar Pradesh unit of the Congress, reacted to the statement of the police officer, “Any officer, no matter what, should be secular; Only then can the government run properly in this country. Otherwise, this will spread chaos. ” He said, “If people of a particular religion have expressed discomfort over playing color, it is the duty of the officer to ensure that there is no atmosphere of fear or insecurity. There should be such a system that Holi should also be celebrated and Namaz should also be performed peacefully. To say that Holi comes once a year, while the prayers of Jume are 52 times and those who hate colors should live indoors, this is a political statement. ” Hindavi said, “People doing vote bank politics make such comments. As an officer, no one can comment like this because tomorrow they can say that they will only ensure the safety of Hindus, not Muslims. ” He said, “The statement made by this police officer is extremely condemnable. I believe that action should be taken against the officials according to the code of conduct.

However, those who are creating controversy over the suggestion of Sambhal’s CO Anuj Chaudhary have probably forgotten that in Akhilesh Raj, Hindus had to face all the difficulties in playing Holi on the day of Holi. During the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections of 2022, when Sarkari Result Daily’s team was in Kairana for election coverage, what a local youth had told should be heard by everyone and then it should be decided whether Anuj Chaudhary should welcome or criticize what Anuj Chaudhary has given.
