M.P. Home Minister Dr. Narottam Mishra complains against video shot inside temple
The Madhya Pradesh’s Ujjain and Indore Police have lodged cases against a woman and five persons for two instances of ‘hurting Hindu sentiments’. Both incidents have taken place in State’s Malwa region, considered to be communally sensitive.
In the first incident, an FIR was lodged against a woman following a complaint from the State’s Home Minister.
“Stern action will be taken against people for releasing videos shot at religious places that hurt religious sentiments. In context to a video released by a woman shot in the premises of Ujjain’s Mahakaleswar temple premises, I have asked the Ujjain Superintendent Of Police to lodge an FIR against the woman,” tweeted Home Minister Dr. Narottam Mishra.

The Karnataka government has drafted a comprehensive master plan for the integrated development of Kukke Subrahmanya temple, the State’s highest revenue-generating temple managed by the Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments Department. The redevelopment initiative is estimated to cost around ₹254 crore and aims to enhance infrastructure and facilities for devotees.
