Police flag march amid Bengaluru Idgah Maidan tension

Bengaluru, Aug 12 (UNI) Karnataka police on Friday carried out a flag march in the city's disputed Idgah Maidan following a few Hindu groups expressing their desire to hold Ganesh puja during Vinayak Chaturthi.
The tension surfaced after Revenue Minister R Ashoka declared that the disputed Idgah Maidan was owned by the revenue department, in variance to the claims made by Waqf Board.
The tension further intensified after Congress MLA Zameer Ahmed Khan visited the disputed maidan and told mediapersons that no Ganesha puja would be allowed, except for hoisting tricolor on Independence Day.
