Shivamanath alias Sanwar Hussain.
In Bijnour, Uttar Pradesh, a youth from another community cheated people for five months and hurt the religious sentiments of the people. A young man named Samwar Hussain lived as a priest in a temple here. He told people his name was Pujari Shivamanath. First he came as a Jogi in Tipperjot village of Sherkot. He told people that he had been a priest in Nagina temple. As there was no priest in Tipperjot village, people made Shivamanath the priest of the Shiva temple here.
On Saturday, a village youth asked the priest Shivmanath for an Aadhaar card to vote. At first the priest hesitated. But the youth said that he has to show his Aadhaar card. After much insistence, Shivnath gave the Aadhaar card in the name of Afsar Ali’s son Sanwar Hussain. The address of Udham Singh Nagar (Uttrakhand) was written on it. Seeing the Aadhaar card, the young man lost his senses. He told this to the villagers.
Everyone was surprised to know the truth of the priest. Then the fake priest said – I am a resident of Rampur. Six years ago, my family and I left the Muslim religion and embraced Hinduism. Now I am only a Hindu. My family members have also become Hindus. He lives in Rampur. Then people called his family. Sanwar’s brother said – Sanwar had adopted Hinduism six years ago. From then on he started living with sages. Began to pray. He occasionally comes to Rampur to meet his family.
