After Ayodhya, another Hindu temple reopened in Sambhal

Recently, after the violence at the Jama Masjid survey in Sambhal, a video was seen on social media. In the video, a temple that had been closed since 1978 opened on Saturday in the presence of the police administration. People worshiped in the temple opened after 46 years.

According to sources, Vishnu Sharan Rastogi, patron of Nagar Hindu Sabha, claims that the temple has been reopened after 1978, in which worship has not been done for decades. It is being told that the doors of this temple were closed due to communal violence. After the temple opened in the presence of the police administration, a flood of faith swelled among the people, and devotees worshiped inside the temple.

In the viral video, police personnel open the doors of the temple. A big statue of Lord Hanuman is seen on the front wall inside, and there is also a Shivling in front. The temple, having been closed for many years, had gathered layers of dirt. Police personnel were seen cleaning the dust from Shivji’s pindi. A bell was also installed in the temple, covered with dust and spider webs.

This temple is located in Khaggu Sarai Mohalla of the Nakhasa police station area of Sambhal. The officials found the temple closed during electricity checking. After this, they called the temple priest and obtained full information about the matter. Then, in the presence of police, they opened the temple’s doors. Police officials cleaned the inside of the temple.

After watching the viral video, users shared many types of reactions. A user writes, There are many temples that need justice. Many illegal encroachments and structures are made above the temples in the whole of Akhand Bharat. Soon all the temples in India will get justice by breaking all illegal structures built upon temples.

Another user writes that Dalits and backward (SC, ST, OBC) should have the first right on this temple because if they are divided, they will be cut. Even the priest should be appointed a learned Dalit instead of a Brahmin.
