The UP police invoked National Security Act against two persons for allegedly burning copies of Ramcharitmanas, a poem based on the epic Ramayana. As per the allegations, Salim and Satyendra Kushwaha along with 10 more people burned copies of Ramcharitmanas, after the video of the incident went viral. Last month, SP leader Swami Prasad Maurya sparked a controversy after he demanded the deletion of “insulting comments and sarcasm” targeted at particular castes and sects in Ramcharitmanas.
