Mahakaleshwar Temple Bans BJP MLA's Son from VIP Access After Filming Violation
The Mahakaleshwar Temple committee in Ujjain fined a security firm ₹5 lakh and suspended three personnel after BJP MLA Golu Shukla's son, Rudraksh, was seen recording a video inside the temple's restricted area, violating mobile phone and filming bans. Rudraksh has been barred from VIP facilities for one year and will enter as an ordinary devotee. The incident raised concerns about security enforcement, as personnel appeared to facilitate his visit despite rules.
