He exaggerated this information before sharing it with the media. On Friday, collector Ashish Singh and SP Satyendra Kumar Shukla had gone to the temple to review the arrangements for Sawan.

Meanwhile, an officer of the Intelligence Department, spotted a young man who was making a video of the officers. On his orders the young man was stopped and interrogated.
