Dhar (Madhya Pradesh), July 20 A ruckus was witnessed in Madhya Pradesh's Dhar district after a board was put up in Lohari village outside a temple stating Dalits were prohibited from entering there.
The board, however, was removed following protests by the people of the Dalit community.
The board -- that was first noticed on Wednesday at Shri Narvdeshwar Mahadev Temple -- mentioned that "Harijans are prohibited from coming to the temple".
Later, a large number of people came out on the streets, and also blocked the road.
The board was eventually removed after the authorities intervened in the matter.
The police have registered a case under the SC ST Act including assault against the person who put up the banner.
