Dhirendra Shastri Attack: Spiritual leader Dhirendra Krishna Shastri has dismissed reports suggesting that a mobile phone was thrown at him during the Sanatan Hindu Unity March in Orchha on Tuesday. Clarifying the situation, Shastri explained that a devotee was showering him with flowers when a mobile phone accidentally slipped from the devotee’s hands and fell on him.
In a conversation with the media, Shastri revealed that a police officer informed him about the false rumors circulating, alleging that the phone was deliberately thrown at him with intent to harm. “Ek shradhalu hum par phool barsa raha tha, galti se mobile phone gir gaya uske haath se. Phone bahot samanya tha, hume koi chot nahi pahochi. Usko phone lauta diya gaya,” Shastri stated.
This translates to: “A devotee was showering flowers at me when, accidentally, he lost his grip, and the mobile phone fell on me. The phone was light, like the flowers; neither of us was hurt, and the phone was returned to him.”

He further added that the state government had made sufficient arrangements to ensure the event proceeded smoothly without any untoward incidents. Shastri emphasized that the event was a spiritual rally, not a political one, with devotees focusing solely on spiritual practices.

In addition to addressing the incident, Shastri also shared his message with the devotees on Monday in Mauranipur, at the Uttar Pradesh border. He urged them to shed caste and creed ideologies, calling for their complete removal from society. The march, which also saw participation from Madhya Pradesh Minister Rakesh Shukla and Hanuman Garhi Ayodhya’s Mahant Rajudas Maharaj, was centered on promoting unity among the Sanatan Hindu community.
