Mahant Raju Das, the priest of the Hanuman Garhi temple, said, “We have given the slogan Har Mandir Tiranga. All temples and maths in Ayodhya will unfurl the Tricolour.
The tricolor will also fly at Hanuman Garhi.”The Ayodhya Sant Samaj has asked priests of all temples to unfurl the Tricolour at their respective temples. Normally, saffron flags fly atop temples.”We have issued an appeal to all sadhus and mahants to unfurl the Tricolour at their respective temples along with the saffron flag,” Das added. In Mathura, the Dwarkadeesh temple in the heart of the city will celebrate Tiranga Mahotsav on Sunday to mark the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav organized on the completion of 75 years of Independence.
