Pragya Thakur's roadshow in Burhanpur cancelled

Pragya Singh Thakur's roadshow in Burhanpur has been cancelled. An aide claimed she was unwell having travelled that far but party sources told The Indian Express that it was done to avoid more controversy after her comments about Nathuram Godse. Burhanpur is a community sensitive town under Khandwa parliamentary constituency.
Over the last three days, BJP leaders spoke in different voices about Pragya's campaign with one section arguing it did not have the official sanction and one claiming otherwise. She campaigned for Dewas candidate Mahendra Solanki on Wednesday and Thursday. He said it was an official programme. The former judge told the Indian Express that he did not make any request for her roadshow in his support. A leader claimed she went to Ashta and Shajapur on his request.
