The senior pontiff had come down for few hours from Bengaluru only for the purpose of attending the meeting.
The Shiroor Mutt seer had exposed the illegal activities as he claimed taking place within Asta Mutts in an interview to a private channel.
The meeting held by the Asta Mutt seers had decided to issue notice to Shiroor Mutt seer through its Dwandwa Mutt-Sode Vadiraj Mutt. The internal notice issued by the Sode Vadiraj Mutt seer Vishwavallabha Theertha Swami demanded a clarification over the allegations made by the Shiroor Mutt pontiff, besides asking for apologising in public.
