At a meeting held in the ongoing Magh Mela at the camp of Akhil Bhartiya Dandi Sanyasi Parishad, Peethadhishwar Swami Brahmashram Maharaj, along with seers and saints of different organisations demanded that temples and mutts should be free from government control.
“There has been a ‘sanatan dharam’ tradition in which ashrams and Sanskrit schools are being run from temples. Government should adopt a similar policy and free temples from its control at the earliest,” he said.
