Devotees not allowed; but Vijayvargiya, BJP leaders attend ritual at MP temple

Kailash Vijayvargiya and three other BJP leaders prayed at Madhya Pradesh’s Mahakaleshwar Temple in Ujjain on Friday morning during Bhasm Aarti even as no person was supposed to be allowed inside the shrine’s sanctum sanctorum during the ritual, priests said. Ajay Pandit and Sanjay Pujari, the main priests of the temple, said the ritual was delayed by half an hour because of the visit of the BJP leaders. The two said they were stopped from entering the temple when the BJP leaders prayed. Another priest of the temple said the BJP leaders arrived around 3am and worshipped at sanctum sanctorum by offering milk and water to the deity on the occasion Naagpanchami.
