A venue in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, revokes permission for Rahul Gandhi’s planned event, ‘Chhatron Ki Goonj’, on August 8. The organisers had sought to use the KP College ground for the event. According to reporting from multiple outlets, the trust running the venue cancels the permission citing practical and legal reasons. The trust says waterlogging conditions at the site prevent holding the event. It also points to a restriction issued by the Allahabad High Court that limits the ground’s use to sports and educational activities. Both outlets report that the trust frames the cancellation as compliance with the court’s direction. As a result, the organisers must seek an alternative venue or format for the event, unless a legal or administrative change allows the ground to be used for other purposes. No conflicting accounts were presented in the cited reports about the trust’s stated grounds for cancelling the event.
