The Ajmer Dargah Committee has issued a notice banning any provocative statement, slogan, photo and video display from Dargah Sharif.

A notice to this effect was pasted on Tuesday.

"Wrong comments, slogans and statements hurt the dignity of the Dargah. Legal action will be taken for making controversial remarks from Dargah," said the notice.

It comes in the backdrop of provocative statements issued by some Dargah clerics over the controversial statement made by suspended BJP spokesperson, Nupur Sharma on Prophet Mohammad.

Recently, the Chairman of the Chisti foundation in Ajmer and the Gaddi Nashin-Dargah Ajmer Sharif, Haji Syed Salman Chishty denounced 'anti-Islamic' and 'anti-humanity' slogans.

“They are the real culprits who are bringing these slogans of violence, death & destruction," he said.

"To hear such slogans which aren't attached to Dargah Ajmer Sharif & some individuals who have raised these slogans-we denounce & boycott them completely. The world should know that this has nothing to do with Ajmer Dargah Sharif or the community of Ghareeb Nawaz," Chishty added.
