Shut down ashram, carry out impartial investigation: HS Doreswamy
PROBE SOUGHT INTO ‘IRREGULARITIES’ IN AVADHOOTA DATTA PEETHAM
Bengaluru: Senior freedom fighter HS Doreswamy has urged the state government to conduct an impartial inquiry into the alleged irregularities in the Avadhoota Datta Peetham of Mysuru and justice must be provided to the victims by closing down the ashram.
Addressing a press conference here, he said that the Ashram has branches in Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and other states. Unmarried women are staying illegally in all the ashrams. Ganapati Sachidananda Swamiji of Datta Petham is fond of the foreign culture. Hence, Our primary culture is being sidelined in the name of Hindu religion.
“Women and girls are being treated inappropriately in the ashram. The state government should immediately order the probe against such Swamis and Ashrams who are abusing the religious sentiments of the people,” Doreswamy alleged.
High Court lawyer SS Ravishankar, social activist Mahesh Reddy, lawyers Raghavendra were present.

UP: Misled by GPS navigation, car falls into river from partially constructed bridge, 3 dead
Bareilly (UP), Nov 24: Three people died when their car fell into the Ramganga river from a partially constructed bridge here on Sunday, police said, adding that they suspect the driver was misled by its navigation system into taking the unsafe route.
The accident occurred around 10 am on the Khalpur-Dataganj road when the victims were travelling from Bareilly to Dataganj in the Badaun district, they said.
"Earlier this year, floods had caused the front portion of the bridge to collapse into the river, but this change had not been updated in the system," Circle Officer Ashutosh Shivam said.
The driver was using a navigation system and did not realise that the bridge was unsafe, driving the car off the damaged section, the police said.
There were no safety barriers or warning signs on the approach to the damaged bridge, leading to the fatal accident, Shivam said.
Upon receiving information, police teams from Faridpur, Bareilly and Dataganj police station rushed to the spot. They recovered the vehicle and the bodies from the river, Shivam added.
The circle officer said that bodies had been sent for post-mortem. Further investigation into the matter is underway.
