Hindu outfits of the city have taken strong exception to alleged controversial remarks of a self-proclaimed Shankaracharya Adhokshajanand Devtirth against the BJP’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi.
Talking to mediapersons, representatives of Dharmsangh Ramrajya Peeth Parishad, Aditya Vahini and Anand Vahini here on Monday alleged that some self-proclaimed Shankaracharya taking benefits of the lok Sabha elections have become puppets in the hands of those political parties which are apparently apprehending defeats in the ensuing lok Sabha elections.
These so-called Shankaracharya have not only undermined the importance of this highest religious position but are also trying to vitiate the atmosphere of communal harmony in the country.
The self-proclaimed Rs Shankaracharya’ of Puri Peethadhishwar Govardhan Math is one such Shankaracharyas who are unnecessarily trying to demolish the beliefs of crores of people attached with Rs sanaatan dharm’.
The Ramrajya Peeth Parishad members said that they will protest entry of this self-proclaimed Shankaracharya in Madhya Pradesh through non-violent approach. The Parishad has also demanded support for ban on rallies and meetings of these self-proclaimed and fake Shankaracharyas in the country.
The national organising secretary of the Dharmsangh Ramrajya Peeth Parishad, Pranwanand Prakash who is also the in-charge of the Parishand for Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat alleged that the self-proclaimed Shankaracharya Adhokshjanand Ji is acting at the behest of a political party and giving controversial remarks against the BJP’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi.
He informed that secretary of Swami Nischalanand Saraswati, Shankaracharya of Govardhan Math, Jagannath Puri in this regard has also written a letter to the Election Commission on May 1 seeking ban on tours and meetings of this self-proclaimed Shankaracharya.
