Lord Hanuman gets eviction notice in MP

Law is equal for everyone – including Lord Hanuman as Bindh district official authorities issued an eviction notice to Lord Hanuman.

The temple of Lord Hanuman situated in Bajariya locality of Bhind district in Madhya Pradesh was issued notice over some portion of the temple’s construction termed to be illegal on public domain and is trespassing upon the public way. The officials are said to have taken the decision after pursuing the directive of Gwalior High Court to remove the violation but the municipal authorities instead of the temple’s trust or the head priest issued notice addressing Lord Hanuman.

Here is the notice served to Lord Hanuman:

“You have illegally encroached the road which causes public inconvenience, leading to possibility of accident. Despite earlier directive to remove the encroachment, you have not complied. You were given the Gwalior High Court’s order. But you didn’t comply. A contempt of court case has been initiated against you.”

The notice created a public furor due to which the Municipal officials issued a statement affirming that the notice would be recalled.
