Eyewitness Account: Unidentified Individual Engages in Vandalism at Temple Premises
Swami Muktidanand, residing at the Dwarka Sharada Peeth-administered Math in Bharuch, recounted an alarming incident that unfolded this morning. He mentioned performing the temple rituals around 5:00 a.m. and returning around the same time after conducting rituals in another part of the temple.
At that moment, he noticed commotion outside, where an individual was causing disturbance. Upon approaching, he attempted to confront the person. Reviewing the CCTV footage later revealed that the individual entered from the backside of the premises, engaged in destructive acts, and set fire to several papers.
The individual remained silent throughout the incident. Since I have taken charge of managing the Math’s affairs, I have faced several international disputes, potentially linked to this incident.
