Permission was denied to Telangana BJP MLA Raja Singh to hold a public meeting in support of the CAA at the NTR stadium here on Saturday as he did not produce any proof of booking the ground, among other reasons, police said on Friday.

A book fair was already going on at the stadium and there was a possibility of law and order and traffic being affected as other groups, opposed to the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), had also planned events on Saturday, they said.

In a video message, Raja Singh, the Goshamahal MLA, took objection to permission being denied to him and asked as to why permission was not given to him while the AIMIM was given permission to organise anti-CAA protest meetings at Nizamabad on Friday and at the AIMIM office in Hyderabad earlier.
