Two Hindu Mahasabha workers were arrested for offering holy Gangajal at a tomb inside the world-famous Taj Mahal in Uttar Pradesh's Agra.

As per reports, Hindu Mahasabha Mathura's district president Vinesh Chaudhary and Shyam on Saturday morning bought tickets for the Taj Mahal. They entered from the western gate. They offered Gangajal on the graves of Shah Jahan and Mumtaz.

Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) personnel took both the youths into custody on the spot and sent them to police station.

Vinesh and Shyam reportedly took Gangajal in a 1-litre Bisleri bottle.

A video of the incident has surfaced on social media. The viral video shows a man sneakily pouring water on the tomb.

Earlier, Meera Rathore, the district president of the All India Hindu Mahasabha Women's Front, also attempted to offer 'Gangajal' at the Taj Mahal on Monday, claiming that Lord Shiva had appeared in her dreams and instructed her to do so. However, the monument authorities prevented her from entering the site.
