A fresh controversy has erupted after Karnataka Congress leader and MLA, Zameer Ahmed Khan on Monday said that Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations will not be allowed at the site on which the Idgah Maidan stands in Bengaluru`s Chamarajpet.
This statement comes after the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) on Saturday passed an order stating that the ownership of the Idgah Maidan near Bengaluru`s Chamarajpet belongs to the Revenue department and not the Wakf board. The former Karnataka Minister, who visited the Idgah Maidan, announced that for the first time in the history the tricolor is being hoisted at the premises of Idgah Maidan.
