India Today
Gauhar Chishti was arrested for raising provocative slogans against former BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma.
Ajmer dargah cleric Gauhar Chisti, who was arrested in connection with a provocative speech, was sent to a 14-day judicial custody by a court here on Friday.
He was produced before Chief Judicial Magistrate Ajanta Agrawal at her residence.
She remanded him into a judicial custody for 14 days, Dargah police station SHO Dalveer Singh said.
Chisti was shifted to a high-security jail of Ajmer.
Meanwhile, police claimed said Chisti had no links with the killing of a tailor in Udaipur.
"As per investigation so far and interrogation of Gauhar Chisti, he has no connection with the Udaipur incident or with any suspicious organisation. Also, no suspicious financial transaction was found," ASP Vikas Sangwan said.
A tailor was brutally murdered in Udaipur on June 28 by cleaver-wielding two men over a controversial social media post.

The matter pertains to a petition filed by one Nikhil Kumar Punia, who was born into an upper-caste Hindu family but supposedly converted to Buddhism later. He, along with another General Category candidate, has sought minority reservation benefits for admission to a Buddhist medical college on grounds of their purported conversion.

Energy disruption due to the war in the Middle East has exposed India's dependence on imported gas. It has prompted a policy shift mandating a switch from LPG to piped natural gas (PNG) where available. With supply constraints looming, the government is fast-tracking pipelines and pushing a nationwide transition to strengthen energy security.
