Jaipur: BJP Yuva Morcha National President and Bengaluru MP Tejasvi Surya was on Wednesday detained by Rajasthan Police while he was on his way to visit violence-hit Karauli.

BJP Rajasthan President Satish Poonia and other party workers and supporters were also on their way to Karauli along with the MP when they were stopped and detained at the Dausa border.

Calling on party workers and supporters who are accompanying him, Surya asked them if they were ready to fight for the nation to a rousing "yes".

"Section 144 is not in place at where we are now...It's our constitutional right to go to Karauli. This dictatorial government is snatching our rights, which is why we are protesting," the BJP MP said according to news agency PTI.

The Jaipur district administration had on Saturday imposed Section 144 CrPC till May 9 and suspended the gathering of crowds, protests, assemblies, and processions without prior permission in the entire rural and urban area. It has also prohibited any objectionable sloganeering and singing or demonstration of similar activities.

Karauli saw clashes between two communities on April 2. A curfew was imposed for over a week, till April 12, considering the law and order situation.
