The entry of Togadia, who was scheduled to visit the Mahakaleshwar temple in Madhiya area of the city on Shivratri day, has been banned by the district administration, officials said.
Hindu outfits have been raising objections over the encroachment of land around a temple by members of a particular community. Last year, Yogi Adityanath was stopped at Kanpur while he was on his way here on the same day.
This year local VHP leaders and BJP MLA Ravi Sharma had invited Togadia for offering prayers in the temple, sources said.
"There would be no objection on locals offering 'jalabhishek' on the Shivratri, but no outsiders would be allowed to come here and disturb peace and order," he said.
