Fourteen men jailed for 14 days after alleged Iftar gathering on Ganga River boat sparked religious and environmental backlash.
Fourteen men in Varanasi were remanded to 14 days of judicial custody after being accused of holding an Iftar gathering on a Ganga River boat, where they allegedly ate non-vegetarian food and discarded waste into the river.
The incident, captured in a viral video, prompted a complaint from a BJP youth leader who claimed the group forcibly took a boat and threatened the operator.
Authorities added charges including kidnapping, promoting enmity, and environmental pollution.
The court rejected bail, citing evidence from the boatman and eyewitnesses, and scheduled a hearing on March 23.
The case has drawn national attention over religious sensitivities and river pollution.
