Prominent seers and religious organisations have decided to take a ‘firm decision’ to free Hindu temples and mutts across the country from the control of state governments at the ‘Dharam Sansad’ to be held later this month at the upcoming Magh Mela in Prayagraj.Mahant Ravindra Puri, president of the Akhil Bhartiya Akhara Parishad (ABAP), the apex decision-making body of 13 Hindu akharas or monastic orders of the country, said, “The all-important ‘Dharam Sansad’, scheduled to be held on January 30, will prepare a blueprint for a mass movement to be launched for freeing temples from government control.”Puri said, “It is an irony that several officials, who are of different religions, take decisions on our temples and mutts and this situation cannot be allowed to continue any more. Affairs of many prominent temples of our country, including Tirupati Balaji, Sri Jagannath or Siddhi Vinayak, are being looked after by the government. Furthermore, there are some temples and mutts which are being looked after by persons who are of different religions and are not well aware of our religious practices and rituals.”
