Amaravati: AP BJP is launching a State wide one day hunger strike on Tuesday against the decision of Tirumala Tirupati Devastanams' Trust Board to sell the valuable properties of the temple, which is hurting the religious sentiments of the Hindu devotees.

Calling for the hunger strike, the BJP State president Kanna Lakshminarayana urged all the party leaders, cadre, followers apart from Hindu organizations, institutions and others to join in this protest at their respective houses, on Monday while speaking with this correspondent.

Kanna accused the State government for the decision of the Trust Board, by saying that Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy made the board as a rehabilitation centre for the YSRCP leaders. He also accused that there was a big conspiracy in selling the properties. The people at the helm of the affairs in the State government already selected the people to whom they will sell these lands and now finalized the list of properties to be auctioned.

The BJP leader stated that the unethical practice of the State government with respect to the Hindu religion and its properties will severely hurt the sentiments of crores of devotees across the country. Further, he said that the selling of a temple property by claiming that they were unproductive and problem for maintenance would a bad precedence. It will have a serious negative impact on the future of temples across the country, if the TTD model of selling lands will be taken as a model by the rest of temple managements.

He said the devotees donated lands to the God but not to the Trust Board and hence the people who are governing the temple should protect the properties.AP BJP is launching a State wide one day hunger strike on Tuesday against the decision of Tirumala Tirupati Devastanams' Trust Board to sell the valuable properties of the temple, which is hurting the religious sentiments of the Hindu devotees.
