‘No entry for non-Hindus’: Har ki Pauri boards cite century-old bylaw; officials say no fresh order

New notice boards citing a century-old bylaw restricting non-Hindus at Har-ki-Pauri have been installed by the Ganga Sabha. The body aims to enforce rules framed in 1916, stating only those connected to Sanatan Dharma should enter the holy site. While the Ganga Sabha seeks wider implementation, district officials emphasize that enforcement depends on civic authorities and adherence to the law.
