Wall ins𓂃criptions claiming that L🍰ord Krishna was a Jat triggered protests in Mathura, prompting police to register an FIR and start a probe, officials said on Tuesday.
Accordin🐲g to mythology, Nandgaon in Mathura is believed to be the village Lord Krishna was brought to by his foster parents, Yashoda and Nand Baba, to protect him from King 🐟Kansa.
Lord Krishna is tra🎶ditiona⛦lly regarded as a member of the Yaduvanshi lineage.
Recently, writings under the title "The History of Nandgaon" cropped up on the walls of some shops and homes in Nandgaon that asserted tha💮t Lord Krishna was a Jat.
The in🉐scriptions included the name of one Kunwar Singh and a phone number.
Attempts by locals to contact the number, however, were un𝓀success💮ful.
As tension grew, subdivisional magistrate Sweta Singh directed the nagar panchayat to regꦗister a case.
Clerk Ramjeet filed an FIR on Tuesday against Kunwar Singh for spreading misꦕinformation about Lord Krishna and hurting pu💛blic sentiment.
The 𒁃police said a search had been launched for the accused.
"An FIR has been registered based on the complaint by the nagar panchayat clerk. Efforts are underway to identify and locate the accused but no concrete information about his identity or whereabouts has emerged yet. The phone number provided is also inactive," local SHO Arvind Kಌumar Nirwal said.

🔯Meanwhile, the nagar panchayat erased all such statements from public spaces. The authorit📖ies assured the public that the situation was under control.
