Mysore/Mysuru, Feb. 6 -- Hindu activists prepare to submit records on threat to Temple, Gopura

Hindu social activists are preparing to submit documents to the High Court, alleging that works being carried out under the Central Government's Pilgrimage Rejuvenation and Spiritual Heritage Augmentation Drive (PRASHAD) scheme at Chamundi Hill pose a threat to the preservation, heritage and traditions of the Sri Chamundeshwari Temple and its iconic gopura.

Activist Lohitt Urs said the matter is scheduled to be heard in the High Court on Feb. 13. He said the Court has already directed both the Central and State Governments to submit detailed records related to the PRASHAD project.
