'No curbs on Togadia's entry to Bhojshala'

Dhar (M.P.) Jan. 12. The Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister, Digvijay Singh, today said the district administration would not restrict the entry of the VHP leader, Praveen Togadia, to the disputed Bhojshala in the city on February 6, but would ensure that his speech did not whip up communal passion in the sensitive town.

``In India people have the freedom to go anywhere, but we will take measures, including video- recording of his visit and speech, to ensure that it will not disturb the communal harmony,'' Mr. Singh told reporters while answering a query on whether Mr. Togadia will be allowed to visit the site on the occasion of the `Basant Panchmi'. The disputed site is in possession of the Archaeological Survey of India where a temple and a mosque co-exist.— PTI
