In a Facebook post on his official page, Surendran said that he was getting several complaints each day about organisations including the RSS conducting illegal activities in temples under the Devaswom board.

"It is necessary to distance apprehensions in the society regarding this. Temples are centres of traditions and beliefs," he said.

Surendran also alleged that the RSS was trying to push believers away from temples making it a storage for weapons and by weapon training.

"Such anti-social activities that destroy the secular nature and peaceful environment of the state will not be allowed," the Minister warned.

Kadakampally Surendran also said that the LDF government will immediately intervene in such complaints and take urgent measures to end the illegal activities.

Chief Minister should order police raids on these arm stores and recover the arms, and install CCTV cameras to monitor the activities round the clock. CM needs to substantiate his allegations with proof. I fully agree with his view that no religious ceremony should take place during any official function, it has no place in secular democracy. Our constitution gives every citizen right to practice religion of his or her choice freely but not at state level. State has no religion.

Here is a Minister for Temples Administration. He defines a temple as a centre for traditions and beliefs. Sorry Comrade , a temple is a place for worship of God. If it is only a place of tradition and faith, there is the danger of it being appropriated by the communist Party, which has both tradition and faith. No temple in Kerala will allow storing of weapons within, may be in its offices or quarters of staff. Is it a plan for the commies to violate the sanctity of the temples?
