The Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) top brass held a meet at the Mumbai Marathi Patrakar Sangh at Azad Maidan on Wednesday late morning where the Gyanvapi (Kashi) controversy and Mathura matter took centre stage. The leaders were hopeful of a speedy resolution to the issues, post the Ram Janmabhoomi event on January 22.

In control

Milind Parande, secretary general of the outfit, stated at the outset, “The VHP is working towards ensuring that temples must be free from central and state government interference. By this, we mean that they will naturally function within the ambit of the law but controlled by a committee of seers, judicial experts and other learned people who will oversee the functioning of these temples. This panel/expert committee can manage matters. We also should have a dispute resolution mechanism to address any internal differences.” Parande further added, “The money collected by these temples through donations and offerings should be used for causes like the upkeep of smaller temples, maintenance, and other aspects.”
