The Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) has urged garba-dandiya event organizers to permit entry only to Hindus, insisting that participants show their Aadhaar card and apply a tilak before entering. Meanwhile, BJP MLA Rameshwar Sharma of Huzur, MP has said non-Hindus wishing to join garba during Navratri should first “return to the Sanatan fold” and perform rituals such as applying tilak, drinking Gangajal, and performing aarti. Critics warn these demands violate secular and inclusive norms, especially as they use identity proof like Aadhaar and religious rituals as prerequisites for participation. #VHP #Garba2025 #NavratriCelebrations #ReligiousIdentity #AadhaarDebate #TilakControversy #HinduRituals #RameshwarSharma #SanatanDharma #SecularismDebate #ReligiousFreedom #CulturalEvents #SocialDebate #IndiaPolitics #News #newsone
