i cannot belive that we still have readers to read such stupid news, in fact in chennai every corner house has a lord ganesha on their compund walls, every corner there is a small temple, every autorikshaw stand has a god, like this one has no choice but to walk bare foot all over tamilnadu, including airports, stations, shopping complexes, shops.
i would suggest footwear companies to sue this guy for affecting their sale.
now i would only recommend the advocates taking up gurumurthi's side to be carefull, he may have a gods dollor on his neck and expect them to fight the case barefoot.
