V Ravi is embarassed, now trying to give spin.

To the best of my finding, temple ritual was done because:

1. He could not produce something that would have proved his Sons were Hindu.

2. There were people (other than his Son and grandson) along with them who visited the temple were not Hindu.

Non-Hindus are not allowed in Hindu temple all over India. And its not going to change just like that.

Neither State, or Court can interfere. Ideally Ravi should have taken up this issue with SNDP and temple authorities and resolved this.

MILLIONS OF EZHAVAS AND NON BRAHMINS VISIT Guruvayur and other temples annually in India.

Neither State nor court can interfere............U r rite... I think almighty himself has to come down and let everyone know that he created everyone and everything and that non hindus and untouchables were no laboratory error!

I know non-hindus are not allowed to enter in south indian temples and temples in Puri and Rajasthan. But some parts of india are free from this ridiculuous ritual. A lot of western people visit the famous Sidhivinayak and other temples in Maharashtra. Temples in northern plains are not so rigid. In the himalayas too, I have seen foreigners visiting lots of temple without restriction and priest even bothering to ask for proof that they are Hindus. Being a Hindu, it's ridiculuous that I need to give a proof. How can I prove it ?
