AGRA: A large police contingent was camping by the road leading to Aligarh’s Noorpur village on Sunday to deter any attempt to disturb law and order in the wake of VHP leader Sadhvi Prachi’s announcement to perform a ‘havan’ at a mosque there which was at the centre of a row involving people of two different faiths. Although the VHP leader didn’t turn up in spite of her announcement to visit the village till late evening, several activists of saffron outfits reached near the village and confronted the policemen who didn’t allow them to enter. The row began on May 26 when a wedding procession of a Dalit family was allegedly asked to stop the music for a while near a mosque where people were offering prayers. Some people in the wedding procession claimed that they were attacked by the people of the minority community.
