Along with this, the accused were banned from entering the temple for about a month.
‘This is not our culture’
The priests of the temple are upset with the cake cutting by the employees in the Mahakaleshwar temple. Mahakaleshwar temple priest Pandit Mahesh Sharma and Pandit Dilip Upadhyaksha (Chammu Guru) have opposed this and said that this is not our culture. One can celebrate the birthday in another way by reaching the temple, but cutting the cake and making a video of it in this way is completely wrong. We condemn this and demand strict action from those responsible.
