Mathura: The sadhus
of Braj bhumi
have given a call
for making Barsana a
dry zone and close liquor shops in the area.
"Pilgrims are
pained when they find sale of liquor, eggs and meat in the pious land of
Barsana. If district administration does not heed the demand, not only roads
would be blocked but agitation would also be intensified," Ram Raj Das
Baba, the Mahant of Sudama Kuti said.
In a maha-panchayat held
in Barsana on Sunday, Gopeswar Das Maharaj of Gaudham Tirtha Jadkhor in
Rajasthan, demanded dry zone in Barsana like Vrindavan while Mahant Ramkaran Das Baba of Unchagaon said only three day time limit be given to district
administration to implement the demand.
The maha-panchayat was
attended by over a dozen saints and residents of neighbouring
village.
"Now the saints
have extended the time limit up to March 7," Padam
Fauzi, the vice president of Sri Ji
Mandir Vikas trust said today.
