Hanuman ji temple issue

All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them – Galileo Galilei. Hence to discover the truth about the issue of Sri Hanuman ji idol at temple which is situated at Malad (W) is mentioned below which is as follows:-

In the year 1998 Asmita group which is owned by me, have purchased the plot at Malad (W) for the construction purpose. In 2006 Joint venture (JV) was formed & named as “Sun Developers” with PNK Builders – Patel Brothers to develop the said property. I have formed JV owing to lack of time in executing the said property due to my involvement in various political / social / other activities.

The whole issue revolves around the Sri Hanuman ji Mandir which is on road near the said plot wherein i have made it very clear to JV Partners to first construct the new temple in the plot before the construction of the building & than shift the idols from old temple to new temple. The grand & beautiful new temple was constructed in proper plot after taking priest & local people into confidence.

After discovering the facts of the old temple & its idols from local priest, i made personnel visit to village in Varanasi to double check the facts from the original family who have constructed the old temple & installed idols over there. There was technical difficulty in removing the old hanuman ji idol coz some of idol portion has caved in the ground below it. As there was no trustee in this temple it was decided after making due consultation with original owners , priest of the temple & local people to have new idol of Sri hanuman ji in place of old idol. The new idol was installed with all the required rituals / customs & old idol was immersed after taking into confidence all the people involved in this temple. Fortunately entire ceremony of new idol installation is video recorded & photographed.

When i was away to Delhi i was informed that somebody has lodge complaint in police for removing the old hanuman ji idol against the few employees & contractor of the Joint venture. The fact remains the same. The entire episode is been politised & to malign my image of secular person by vested parties in the name of religion.

It’s really very sad & heartbreaking that after having good intentions in heart & secular image created by hard work there are vested parties for Making Mountain out of a molehill. “The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is.” – Winston Churchill.
