On Monday (21 August), the BJP will mark the second death anniversary of Former UP CM Kalyan Singh as ‘Hindu Gaurav Diwas’ in Aligarh.

BJP’s city unit president, Vivek Saraswat confirmed the development. Lauding Kalyan Singh as a staunch Hindu, Saraswat said, “Late Babuji (Kalyan Singh) epitomised Hindu pride. He willingly stepped down from his position as the CM in support of the cause of Sri Ram Janmabhoomi. We are observing the second death anniversary of Babuji as Hindu Gaurav Diwas. This day provides BJP workers with an opportunity to hear from senior party leaders, including Amit Shah.” 

Other major attendees of the event may include BJP state president Bhupinder Singh, and deputy CMs Keshav Prasad Maurya and Brajesh Pathak. 

In the wake of this event, Rajveer Singh aka Raju Bhaiyya, who is the son of Kalyan Singh and serves as the MP from Etah, along with Sandeep Singh, Kalyan Singh’s grandson and a minister in the U.P. cabinet, conducted a review of the preparations on Sunday, August 20th. 

Additionally, district magistrate (DM) Indra Vikram Singh and Aligarh’s senior superintendent of police (SSP Aligarh) Kalanidhi Naithani, held a series of meetings to ensure proper arrangements and security for the event. 

The DM said, “The venue is being provided with three-tier security arrangements. Only individuals with valid passes will be permitted to attend the event. Additionally, the venue has been designated as a ‘No Flying Zone,’ and drones will not be allowed to fly near or above the venue on Monday.” 

However, the administration has duly taken into consideration that Mondays during the Shravan month attract kanwariyas in large numbers and they start arriving as early as Sunday night. For that, they have made all the proper arrangements for the same.  

As a precautionary measure, orders have been issued for the closure of schools in Aligarh city on Monday.
