The Lalkothi police station said in its report that a large number of people are likely to participate in this public meeting. The rally venue is in a very crowded place and hence there is no sufficient space available for organizing the public meeting. It would also impact the traffic.
Gyanchand Yadav said on the basis of the report of the Lalkothi police station, permission was denied for Owaisi's public meeting. Now AIMIM is looking for a new venue for the public rally. A party leader said that Owaisi's visit to the 'Pink City' is on schedule on July 2 and that a new place would be searched for the rally. "We will finalise the place by today evening (June 30), after which we will once again approach the police for permission," the leader added.
