In Ranchi, Jharkhand, a viral video shows Kanwariyas (devotees of Lord Shiva) being denied entry into the ‘Mall of Ranchi’ on Ratu Road for not wearing shoes or slippers. The devotees, dressed in saffron attire, were stopped by mall staff citing safety protocols due to slippery floors and escalators. The incident, which has sparked political controversy, led opposition parties to demand the cancellation of the mall's registration. The 2.5 lakh square-foot mall, inaugurated in August 2023, houses multiple brand showrooms. An official apology was issued by mall representative S. Sanyal, emphasising respect for all religions and explaining the safety concerns behind the request. The local administration is investigating the incident, gathering information from mall management. Bengaluru: BBMP Seals GT Mall for Non-Payment of Property Taxes After Elderly Man in Dhoti Denied Entry (Watch Videos).
