[ OpIndia ] Rahul Gandhi’s wealth redistribution plan underway in Karnataka? Congress govt appoints ‘Nawaz’ to oversee a Shri Avimukteshwara Swamy Temple event

The Congress-led government in Karnataka has appointed a Muslim member, identified as ‘Nawaz’, to oversee the Brahmotsavam event at the Shri Avimukteshwara Swamy Temple in Hoskote. This decision has sparked controversy and drawn criticism from the BJP. The move, which saw the inclusion of ‘Nawaz’ in the Brahmotsavam Committee, responsible for organizing the traditional festival celebrated annually with great fervour, has stirred debate among orthodox members of the community. Traditionalists have expressed dissatisfaction with the decision, arguing that the committee should comprise solely Hindu members, igniting a storm of controversy. The Karnataka BJP took to social media to criticize the composition of the committee. The controversy has even reached the Mujarai department, which oversees religious affairs in the state, as it grapples with the government’s endorsement of Muslim representation in temple committees. BJP accused the Congress government of interfering with Hindu temples and their resources, alleging a bias towards a particular community. The party warned against what it perceives as a broader agenda to strip Hindus of their rights.
