- VHP launches a campaign to free Hindu temples from government control, addressing discriminatory practices.
- The 'Maharashtra Mandir Nyas Parishad' in Shirdi gathered over 875 temple trustees to discuss temple governance.
- The campaign advocates for an Anti-Land Grabbing Act and has gained support across more than 2,000 villages.
The Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP) has launched a significant campaign to free Hindu temples from government control, focusing on the discriminatory practices that they believe affect the governance and operation of temples across India. The movement has gained considerable attention and support, especially following the recent Maharashtra Mandir Nyas Parishad held in Shirdi, where over 875 temple trustees gathered to discuss key issues concerning Hindu temples.
The VHP is calling for an end to government intervention in temple management, arguing that such control often leads to land encroachment and mismanagement of temple resources. One of the primary demands of this campaign is the implementation of an Anti-Land Grabbing Act specifically designed to protect temple lands from illegal encroachment. This act aims to prevent temple land from being misused or seized by unauthorized individuals, ensuring the preservation of temple property for religious and cultural purposes.
The Shirdi meeting was an important milestone in the campaign, as it brought together a large number of temple trustees who expressed concern over the growing number of temples under government control. This event highlighted the widespread issues faced by Hindu temples, including the illegal occupation of temple land and the lack of autonomy in temple administration. The VHP's campaign seeks to give temples the freedom to manage their own affairs without government interference, allowing them to focus on their religious and cultural duties.
The movement has gained momentum beyond Maharashtra, reaching over 2,000 villages across India, where communities have rallied behind the cause. The VHP has emphasized that the issue of temple governance is not only about land ownership but also about the protection of Hindu culture and religious freedom. The Anti-Land Grabbing Act proposal has been met with widespread support from temple trustees and local communities who feel that their temples should not be subjected to government control and exploitation.
As this campaign continues to grow, the VHP is determined to press forward with its agenda to free Hindu temples from what it sees as the detrimental effects of government involvement. The Maharashtra Mandir Nyas Parishad has played a crucial role in gathering temple leaders and supporters, providing a platform for the discussion of vital issues impacting Hindu temples.
