Swaroopanandendra curses the AP and TS governments

 

A thin line between film industry and politics was wiped out longtime ago. Hence, people are not surprising anymore if seen the actors joining in one political party or the other. Later, they have a chance to see the religious leaders also moving closely with the politicians. Uma Bharati, who declares herself as sanyasini is now seen in the Modi’s cabinet holding a key portfolio of water resources.

 

Many others from different religions are seen asking the people to support one political party or the other. So, the thin line between politicians and religious leaders is also gradually wiping out. Although, not many of them have joined active politics, many of them are trying to remotely operate the governments. Occasionally, they involve in some decision makings or want the government to consult them on some issues.

 

One fine example for it is Swamy Swaroopanandendra spitting fire on the AP and the Telangana governments. He fumes upon both Chief Ministers for taking decisions on conducting ‘Godavari Pushkaralu’ without consulting any saints like him. He flayed the AP government for selecting Ramalayam in Onti Mitta in Kadapa district as an official temple for conducting Sri Ramanavami festival celebrations. He asked the government who gave it right to select a temple of its choice to conduct Sri Ramanavami festival without consulting any saints like him.

 

He said that both governments will not get the blessings of the gods as they set aside saints like him and taking decisions on their own in the religious matters. So, it seems the governments have to create a special portfolio to saints and sadhus or else they will be forced to launch a separate political party.
