Jamshedpur: The Jharkhand Mukti Morcha will launch “kar seva” for the “liberation” of the famous Baidyanath Shiva temple at Deoghar from the clutches of “Brahmin pandas.” Shailendra Mahato, MP and general secretary of the party, told newsmen here on Dec.29 that the temple would be restored to the Santals who had originally looked after it. Baiju Santhal had been instrumental in installing the idol of Lord Shiva at Deoghar, he said, but in course of time, the pandas (priests) drove them out and took over its management. Other temples of the Jharkhand region would also be “liberated” in due course. He alleged that the BJP always acted in the interest of upper-caste Hindus and the business community.
