Udupi, Dec 1: Around 16 years ago, the then Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee had inaugurated the renovated the Rajangana hall of Sri Krishna Mutt/Temple during the fourth Paryaya (2000-02) of Pejawar Mutt chief pontiff Vishwesha Tirtha Swami. Now the same hall is being renovated again and the seer desire is to get it inaugurated by the incumbent Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Speaking to presspersons on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of his sanyasa sweekar function here, the 87-year-old Pejawar seer said that the renovation of Rajangana was going on and was expected to be completed in another 10 days.

The Rajangana Hall was being renovated at an estimated cost of Rs. 3 crore. The first floor on its top would be called Madhwangana. “We have already approached Vice-President M. Venkaiah Naidu, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh, for its inauguration, but we are yet to get their confirmed reply,” he said. Asked if he had invited the PM, the seer said that he had already informed the top brass of the government. It was Vajpayee who inaugurated the renovated hall on January 18, 2001. Since another floor was coming up on it, it would be fitting that Mr Modi inaugurated it.

Asked if any of his planned projects in his present fifth Paryaya were pending, the seer said that while he had been successful in get some of the projects implemented, some others had remained. But he would complete them after descending from the Paryaya Peetha.

He had completed all the projects related to the Sri Krishna Mutt/Temple during his present Paryaya. He had got the “pauli” of the Sri Krishna Mutt/Temple renovated and also constructed a choultry here. He had started a college at Pajaka, for which Rs. 12 crore had been spent.

Besides, the All India Sanskrit Conference and the Dharma Sansad had been held during this Paryaya. “I had plans to adopt some villages and promote development there. But it did not fructify,” he said. Asked how he was feeling on his 80th anniversary of sanyasa sweekara, the seer said that God had given him a long life. “I thank God for it. It is all his grace. I have no role in it,” the seer said.
