If you are coming to see Mahakal, then beware of thugs! Temple committee will claim 1 crore
Mahakal Mandir News. Isha Sharma from Jodhpur had come with her family to attend Bhasma Aarti on Sunday morning. Isha told in the complaint that she found a person named Shiv Sharma near the temple and called himself a Pandit. He assured me to visit Bhasmarti and offer water in the sanctum sanctorum. Shiv Sharma took Rs.4300 for this. But when Isha reached to offer bhasmarti and water, neither Shiv Sharma was present there and his phone was also switched off. Isha was asked for the receipt at the entrance. He didn’t even have the receipt, so he was denied entry. Then she realized that she had been duped.
Ujjain. Mahakaleshwar Temple, one of the 12 Jyotirlingas, is a special center of faith for millions of devotees. Every day a large number of devotees come to the temple in the hope of offering water and ashes to Baba Mahakal. Vicious thugs are also active in this crowd of devotees. They are leaving no stone unturned to tarnish the image of the temple. They are making the devotees their prey every day. They are being looted in the name of Bhasma Aarti and VIP Darshan. Once again the devotees have become a victim of fraud.
The matter has reached the Mahakal temple committee through a written complaint. The Mahakal temple committee also took the complaint seriously and has asked to take action by registering a case under section 420 and other sections against the accused in police station Mahakal. Administrator Sandeep Soni said that a defamation case of Rs 1 crore will be filed against the accused so that no one does such an act in the future.
Cheated in the name of Bhasm Aarti
Isha Sharma from Jodhpur had come with her family to attend the Bhasm Aarti on Sunday morning. Isha told in the complaint that she found a person named Shiv Sharma near the temple and called himself a Pandit. He assured me to visit Bhasmarti and offer water in the sanctum sanctorum. Shiv Sharma took Rs.4300 for this. But when Isha reached to offer bhasmarti and water, neither Shiv Sharma was present there and his phone was also switched off. Isha was asked for the receipt at the entrance. He didn’t even have the receipt, so he was denied entry. Then she realized that she had been duped. Isha immediately complained about this to the temple committee. However, later the accused received the call and also returned Rs 2100 online. On Isha’s complaint, the administrator got a case registered against the accused at the police station.
1 crore defamation case against the thug
Sandeep Soni, the administrator of the Ujjain Mahakaleshwar Temple Management Committee, told that a complaint was received in which it was told that a person named Shiv Sharma had cheated him. The aggrieved devotees told the committee that thugs had extorted money from them in the name of offering basmati and water to God in the sanctum sanctorum. Rs 4300 was taken instead of Rs 1900. The temple committee took the complaint seriously. In the whole matter, we got a recording done in which it has been proved that cheating has taken place. In the matter, Thana Mahakal has been asked to register a case against the concerned person under section 420 and others. The police have also been asked to find out about his chain. Thug has no link with the temple committee. A defamation case of Rs 1 crore will be filed against the accused.
FIR registered
Mahakal police station in-charge Munendra Gautam said that the Mahakal Management Committee had asked to register an FIR. An FIR has been registered against the person who cheated the devotees. Soon he will be arrested.
