Senior Congress MP Digvijaya Singh has stirred political discussion in Madhya Pradesh by raising concerns over communal tensions fueled by religious processions with loud music. Singh questioned the state administration’s decision to allow such events near mosques, especially when they are often linked with organizations accused of spreading hate and inciting unrest.
“The question is, why are certain organizations that spread hatred and incite riots allowed to take out processions with DJs playing loud music in front of mosques? Why does the administration grant them permission? Such permissions should not be given,” Singh stated.
His remarks come amid increasing reports of religious processions using high-volume DJ systems near mosques during prayer times—leading to friction and, at times, confrontations between communities.
