The BJP and the Congress on Friday traded charges over the demolition of two temples during an anti-encroachment drive in Rajgarh town of Alwar district this week.
While Rajasthan BJP president Satish Poonia accused the Congress of being behind the demolition, State Congress chief Govind Singh Dotasra said it was the decision of the city’s municipality headed by the BJP.
Two temples and some shops were demolished on Sunday and Monday in Rajgarh, with the officials describing the action as part of an anti-encroachment drive to widen a road. They said the demolition was approved by the Rajgarh Nagar Palika Board.
