As India is a Secular Nation, Non Hindus can be employed in Temple - AP Government

18/06/2009 13:42:41 HKHyderabad: The Congress government in AP is pursuing their Anti Hindu agenda and Temple destructive policies and the justification for all these Policies are vested around SECULARISM!In a highly objectionable move AP Endowment Ministry is going ahead with the appointment of Non Hindus in AP temple as staff.Recently Christians were employed at famous Annavaram Temple.While responding to press Minister for Endowments, Stamps and Registration Gade Venkata Reddy said there should be no objection to employment of non-Hindus in Hindu temples as India was a secular State.

Fools deserve what they getHindus, in hordes, seems to have voted for Congress(and Sonia), with their eyes wide shut. So why complain now?

THIS IS AN ATTEMPT FOR LOOTING.THIS IS AN ATTEMPT FOR LOOTING. CALL IT SIMPLE - LOOTING GOLD, OFFERINGS AND MONEY DONATED TO TEMPLES. AP-CAN HINDUS BE EMPLOYED BY CHURCH? INDIA IS SECULAR ISNT IT?

End of DharmaThis would bring the end of Hindu Dharma in AP. Very soon, the Temples would be converted to Church saying in Secular country none should object to change of religious status of Institution of prayer ! In future Hindus would have to think of going to Annavaram Church or Thirupati Thirumala Venkata Church if this goes on. AWAKE Hindus ! Hold peaceful protest demonstrations against this move by Secular Xtian AP Govt till their craziness against Hindus goes off their mind ! Yes , no use in writing on this website or other, only physical protest Demonstration and awareness about this among the vast Hindu Population in India to stand up against this only would make the things clear. IT IS HIGH TIME TO STAND AGAINST THIS.

Andhra Hindus are sleeping Hindu organinzations should concentrate in Andhra Pradesh before Y. SAMUEL REDDY completes his anti HIndu Agenda. His move must be challenged in Supreme Court. This issue can be or should be taken up by VHP and should start agitation against AP Govt. and thus try to awake sleeping Hindus in Andhra.

SeculariesmMr.Reddy, your comment is my foot.Who has given authrotiy to define Seculariesm.I think the word"secularism" is only apply to hindus.Can Muslim or so called missionaries will allow hindus to be the head of Jama Masjid of Delhi or any palce of Charstians.The answer is big no, then why it is applicable to hindus only. I mean we hindus are impotent.Mr.S.Reddy who is nothing, one of the Chrstian agent. Mind it the hindus like me are not dead, we are protecting, we will defy our culture at any cost.In this forum I would like to inform all the viewers that, it is the hindus, who has not given there very sacred culture to the alien or any other relegion or thought.This is because of our string value based culture. I admit due to lack of unitedness, hindus at large in the suffering end. That does not mean we will give up our so called value and relegion. We are very happy we have born in the hindu family.TUMKO MARNA HEI TO JAOO MAROO.Mindit there are many Dilip Sing Judeo,Swami Laxmananada and others.

Free temples from Government administrationHindu temples shall be governed by devotees. State or central governments shall not be allowed to interfere with the affairs of temples. Freeing the temples from the clutches of government machinery is one of the most important fundamental steps that Hindus should take. This has to be a nation-wide movement, not limited to a few states. AP government action speaks volumes about the degenerative state of Hindus in India. The enormous amount of revenue that the temples at Tirupathy, Guruvayoor and Sabarimala generate every year belongs to the Hindus. The state governments have no right to take that money and spend on hajj pilgrimage and Jerusalem visits. The questions that come to my mind are: Can we not tackle this issue legally? If so, is there any Hindu organisation doing anything in this regard? What prevents the government from taking control of Christian churches and Muslim mosques? If it is only vote banks, then this issue is one of the rallying points for all the Hindu organisations. Are the local branches of RSS and VHP in AP doing anything in this matter? Like the movement that blocked the government attempt to grab the land around Tirupathy temple, Hindus all around the world shall unite to free the temples from government administration.

"secular" U.S.ADoes "Christian" Obama call for non-Christians to be employed in Churches in "secular" U.S.A?
Vijaya 19/06/2009 03:09:39
Provocative moveThis is one more attempt to defeat Hinduism. There is no logical justification for claiming that since India is a secular state, anyone can be employed in a Hindu temple.By definition, a Hindu temple is a Hindu temple and only Hindus can be present on the premises, unless the Hindu community itself decides that it is okay. The government cannot take that decision.

Anti-hindu policies of CongressCongress and Congressmen are once again bent upon destroying hinduism. Why don't they first get some hindu appointed as a Bishop, or a priest in other religions ? This is not a secular state. Secularism has become a tool in the hands of anti-hindu Congress to destroy everything hindu. This should be fought tooth and nail.

That is his ignoranceIgnorant loud mouths reach positions of power without having a clue of public policy or management. Congress party has a large number of them. Their understanding of the word “secularism and its application in religious institutions” must be challenged in courts. Temples are private institutions governments have no right to dictate its staffing procedure. People who work in those institutions must not only be of the same faith, but also ardent devotees. With such policies, government is playing with fire. It is not the government official who would suffer on account of such decisions, but the employees who are so appointed. On the one hand, such employees could sabotage temple activities and on the other, they could end up dead with no forensic evidence.
Malini 19/06/2009 01:54:38
is it ture? if soVery good…if it is true, and only if it is true, then the AP government should implement it through out AP. Muslims should be appointed in Christian church, Hindus should be apportioned to both Christian and Muslim place of worship. But the reality is that both Christian and Muslims are capable of converting the Hindu employee to their fold. But Hindus working in Christian and Muslim place of worship will easily get converted to their religions, no doubt.

Fudge SecularismMuslim Rightist Congress, its fake secularism and pseudo-secular extremists are a curse on Hindusthan. I wonder why don't the local Hindus and priests protest there. These Congresswalas should be taken to court for this dictatorship.

Trash non-Hindu employees.The Hindu public should trash non-Hindus employed in Temples. Then secular desires would naturally die down.
Ghatotkacha Nair 18/06/2009 21:38:22
unabated loot of Hindu wealthThe evengelical strategy is foist christian employees in temples to loot Hindu wealth in temples and use it to convert Hindus to christianity.

Hindu temples under alien controlQuestion 1. How can a government in a secular nation run the administration of a temple which is a religious establishment?Question 2. How can a government which runs the administration of a temple which is a religious establishment be called secular? The Vatican runs churches. Is the Vatican secular?Question 3. Will Andhra churches likeMedak Church – Medak St. Joseph`s Cathedral - Hyderabad St. Mary`s Church – Hyderabad Centenary Baptist Church – Warangal etcEmploy non-christians in important posts?What about Mosques in Andhra, Jamma Masjid, Mecca masjid, Toli Masjid, Moula Ali Darga etc employ non-Muslims in this Christian evangelist run Andhra “secular” Pradesh?
Ravikumar 18/06/2009 19:50:50
What about Hindus in Mosque and Churches?Do these pseudosecular government let Hindus work in Churches and Mosques?
Parameswaran 18/06/2009 19:28:18
TemplesTemples are not government organisations where they can conduct recruitment on the basis of PSC and minority reservations. They belong to Hindus, and only Hindus. If non-Hindus want to work there, let them convert to Hinduism first.
Ragu 18/06/2009 16:07:49
what????"there should be no objection to employment of non-Hindus in Hindu temples as India was a secular State."What kind of (non-)reason is this? Hindu temples are NOT secular organization to employ non-believers. This SOB should be kicked out first.

Can this minister Hindus to be employed at Churches and Mosques !!.Indian Hindus are cowards and most of them are impotent and can't defend their religion or protect their religion. "Dharmo Rakshathi Rakshitah". If you protect dharma , dharma will protect you. Indian Hindus don't even have a remot sense of this dharma. What are Hindus doing when non-Hindus are appointed in Hindu temples ?. Can this ministry also ensure that Hindus be employed at Mosques as well as Churches ?.
"If Hindus do not maintain hinduism ,who shall save it?If India`s own children do not cling to her faith,who shall guard it?India alone can save India ,and India and Hinduism are one."ANNE BEASNT
