Charak said that one young boy named Sumeet Gupta was individually supporting this cause and will ride on a bike to Delhi waving and holding a banner demanding Shrine Board. He will be flagged off by BFDC early in the morning tomorrow.
Kranti Dal President Pritam Sharma, Karnail Chand General Secretary Shri Ragunath Ji Mandir Sewa Samiti and Kher Singh also spoke on the occasion. Hardesh Khokher vice president BFDC has done proceedings on the first day of dharna.
