Tight security for religious procession in Srirangapatna
The Hindu
Event was organsied by Hindu Jagarana Vedike
Security was beefed up in Srirangapatna in view of the Hanuma Maladharane procession organised by the Mysuru division of the Hindu Jagarana Vedike, on Thursday.
The area surrounding the Masjid-E-Ala - constructed during the period of Tipu Sultan - was barricaded and it was out of bounds for the public as a precaution.
The measures stemmed from fears and concerns expressed by members of the minority community and Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI) that there was a conspiracy to vandalise or damage the historic mosque during the event.
