BJP MLA Secures Meat Shop Closures Near Temples in Patparganj During Navratri

Ravinder Singh Negi formalizes efforts to align governance with Hindu religious practices, seeking city-wide closures in Delhi.

BJP MLA Ravinder Singh Negi has persuaded meat shop owners in Patparganj to close shops near temples on Tuesdays and during Navratri.
Negi plans to write to the District Magistrate and Municipal Corporation of Delhi to push for city-wide meat shop closures during the festival.
His advocacy stems from personal discomfort at the presence of meat shops near temples and aims to respect Hindu religious sentiments.
Shopkeepers in Patparganj have reportedly agreed to the closures, marking a local implementation of Negi's broader cultural initiative.
This move reflects the BJP's ongoing efforts to integrate religious sensitivities into governance, following similar initiatives in other states like Madhya Pradesh.
