Ivan's entry will defile the sanctity of Hindu temple, let him convert first: VHP

Mangaluru, Oct 26: Strongly opposing MLC Ivan D'Souza's decision to organise the Bhavaikyata Diwali in Shree Kshetra Kadri on October 29, Sangh Parivar activists have claimed that any such attempt would defile the sanctity of the temple as he is a Christian and not a Hindu.

Addressing a press meet here on Wednesday, the leaders of Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal warned Mr D'Souza and all non-Hindus not to entre the temple until and unless they convert to Hinduism. “Let Mr D'Souza become and Hindu and then come to Hindu temple,” they said, adding that the Hindu religious places should be limited to Hindus only.

It is also their contention that no non-Hindu can organise any religious programme in a Hindu temple managed by the endowment department. They feel organising such a programme will undermine the religious sanctity and traditions of the temple.

Laying down this diktat, M B Puranik, regional working president of VHP, Karnataka said since the Kadri Sri Manjunatha Temple comes under the endowment department, there is also no scope for any such politically motivated programme.

"VHP and all Hindu organisations strongly condemn this move and have urged the district administration, police and endowment department to stop it. If he is so particular, let Ivan celebrate Diwali in a church or a mosque," Puranik said.

Demanding that the administration investigate the matter, Puranik demanded action against officials who permitted the programme. Noting that cancelling the event is the only way to ensure justice to Hindus, Puranik said all Hindu organisations will support the agitation by VHP in this regard.

When journalists asked him for the reason for opposing the event, Puranik failed to come up with one. Incidentally, the VHP and Bajrang Dal earlier in the day submitted a memorandum to deputy commissioner K G Jagadeesha outlining their opposition to the alleged misuse of Hindu religious institutions.

Ivan D'souza should not go for it when Hindus don't like it.

Regarding religion, when all religious group agree there is only 1God, then that God will not permit to follow different religion.
So, why don't all people search for that true 1religion.

Don't follow any religion just because our ancestors followed it.
Dare to find and follow the truth.
