Maharashtra Congress president Nana Patole has requested CM Eknath Shinde to not allow Bagheshwar Dham’s Dhirendra Shastri’s upcoming event in Mumbai, which is scheduled for March 18-19 at Mira Road.

In a letter to CM Shinde, he has also cited Shastri’s derogatory remarks on Sant Tukaram.

According to reports, Dhirendra Shastri of Bageshwar Dham will be a organising a public event on March 18 and 19 at Mira Road in Mumbai.

"Superstition has no place in our state; Maharashtra has also passed such a legislation," Patole wrote in a letter to CM Shinde.

"Maharashtra is a state of progressive ideas. If Dhirendra Shastri's program is permitted in Mumbai, it can mislead people and will amount to playing with their emotions and beliefs.”
