RE:RE:Tanthri-answer these questions
by Prasanth Varma on Jun 06, 2007 11:33 AM

This is a joke..pl understand Thantri answering these questions will ot solve the problems in Gvr. Thanthri is mearely a post created in the pase vested with certain authorities rg how and when the rituals shd be performed. Who shd enter/ not enter, the decision had been with the King. Thatz why still Gvr board has Zamorin King as a member still.. and it is not the Thanthri who has put a board saying that non-hindus are not allowed inside. This is for the Govt to bring in the reforms - but they dare not as once the flood gates open they will invite anger from the vote banks!! Do u know the famous thrissur pooram donations mainly come from christians and muslims? Thiruvambady temple elephant manager is Mr. Davis?? But they all realize their limitations in the present situation and they do not create undue tension - here as a responsible citizen and minister, Mr Ravi shd hv enquired before doing this act - personally I believe all believers shd be allowed to enter any religious place and offer prayers.
Even now many a temple in Kerala has the erstwhile rulers as trustees- Sabarimala has Pandalam raja/ Tripunithura & Pazhayannur has Raja of Cochin..as per the Devaswom manual cochin raja shd take decision in the mentioned temples rg all rituals, festivals etc. Thantri is merely an executive!!
