The Chief Justice of Madhya Pradesh High Court is in controversy. Justice Suresh Kumar Kait is accused of removing the Hanuman temple located at his official residence. What is the whole matter and why is it gaining momentum, let us know.
Chief Justice of Madhya Pradesh High Court Suresh Kumar is embroiled in many controversies. The High Court Bar Association has written a letter to the Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna. It is being told that Suresh Kumar Kait has removed the Hanuman temple located at his official residence. The association has demanded a thorough investigation into the matter. According to the letter written to Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna, there was a temple in the official residence of the Chief Justice of Madhya Pradesh High Court, which was very old. Many former judges – Sharad Arvind Bobde, A. M. Khanvilkar has performed puja here while being a judge. Later these three judges also went to the Supreme Court and retired from there.
“Insult to the followers of Sanatan Dharma”
The letter said that the employees working in the official residence of the Chief Justice also used to worship in this temple. Justice Rafat Alam and Justice Rafiq Ahmed, who came from Muslim religion, also lived in the same residence but they never tampered with the temple. The Bar Association says that the temple is government property and from time to time the temple has been renovated with government money. Therefore, no temple can be demolished without government order or court order. Any such act is an insult to the followers of Sanatan Dharma.
“Temples removed from police stations across the state”
This letter has been written after a complaint in which a lawyer had demanded action against Justice Kait from the President, Prime Minister, CJI and Union Law Minister of the country. The complainant was lawyer Rabindranath Tripathi. According to media reports, after the incident another lawyer has also filed a PIL. In this petition, on the lines of the Chief Justice of Madhya Pradesh High Court, a demand has been made to remove temples from police stations across the state.
