VHP working president Praveen Togadia was on Thursday refused permission to address the VHP’s golden jubilee function in the Assam capital, with Guwahati Police Commissionerate fearing that his inflammatory speeches would disturb law and order and hurt sentiments of the religious minority community.
Togadia, who arrived in the city early on Thursday from Silchar in southern Assam, had to remain confined to the VHP office here for over six hours, during which he however addressed an impromptu press conference in which he criticized the Congress government in the state for stopping him from addressing the VHP function.
