Uday Pratap Singh, others under house arrest
PRAYAGRAJ, July 6 -- Police put 13 people, including Raha Uday Pratap Singh, under house arrest for 40 hours from Saturday morning onwards owing to ongoing Muharram. The house arrest which started on Saturday morning at 5am will end after the end of Muharram at 9 pm on Sunday night.
Police posted a notice of house arrest at the gate of Bhadri Mahal in the early hours of Saturday and a heavy police force was deployed outside the palace.
Bhadri Naresh Raja Uday Pratap Singh, father of seven-time MLA of Kunda, former cabinet minister and president of Jansatta Dal Loktantrik, Raghuraj Pratap Singh, Raja Bhaiya, has been the target of police administration for the last 10 years.

The police administration banned the bhandara after the Muslim community opposed it. To ensure that Raja Uday Pratap Singh did not come out of his palace and visit the temple on the day of Muharram, he was put under house arrest along with his supporters.
Along with Uday Pratap Singh, his trusted men including Jitendra Yadav, Anand Pal, Ramakant, Bhawani Vishwakarma, Ravi Singh, Hanuman Prasad Pandey, Kesarinandan Pandey, Jamuna Prasad Maurya, , Nirbhay Singh, Gaya Prasad Prajapati, Jugnu Vishwakarma, and Mohan, have also been put under house arrest.
