Respected CMO Gujarat Harsh Sanghavi It is with profound sorrow and distress that we bring to your attention a grave and deeply unsettling incident that has occurred at #Pavagadh hill. The sacred #Jain idols of our faith, particularly the idols of the Vandaniya Tirthankar, a revered centerpiece of our religious heritage, have been suddenly removed from their rightful place near the steps of the temple. To our utter dismay and anguish, these venerable images of Tirthankar Gods have been discarded and placed amidst a heap of garbage which are consecrated centuries ago. This act not only disrespects our faith but also violates several constitutional and legal provisions designed to protect religious practices and sites of worship. In light of these events, we humbly and earnestly request the immediate intervention of the administration to: •Enshrine the Idols: Restore the idols of the Most Reverend Vandaniya Tirthankar to their rightful and revered place with immediate effect. •Initiate Legal Action: Take prompt legal action against those responsible persons namely Shri Surendra Patel, Shri Ashok Pandya and manager Shri Vikrambhai for this sacrilegious act under the relevant sections of the law. Legal Provisions Violated: 1.Violation of Constitutional Rights (Articles 25 to 28): The right to freely profess, practice, and propagate religion, as guaranteed under Articles 25 to 28 of the Constitution of India, has been egregiously violated. These articles ensure that all citizens have the right to worship and maintain religious practices without fear or hindrance. 2.The Places of Worship (Special Provisions) Act, 1991: This Act prohibits the conversion of any place of worship and mandates the preservation of its religious character as it existed on the 15th day of August, 1947. The unauthorized removal and desecration of the idols violate this Act, which prescribes a punishment of up to three years imprisonment for such offenses. 3.Section 153A of the Indian Penal Code (IPC): This section addresses the offense of promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language, etc., and acts prejudicial to the maintenance of harmony. 4.Section 295 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC): This section pertains to injuring or defiling a place of worship with intent to insult the religion of any class. It states that whoever destroys, damages, or defiles any place of worship or any object held sacred by any class of persons with the intention of insulting their religion, or with the knowledge that such act is likely to insult their religion, shall be punishable with imprisonment for a term which may extend up to two years, or with fine, or with both. In conclusion, we seek your esteemed office's urgent and empathetic action to rectify this grievous wrong and to uphold the sanctity and respect of our religious heritage. We trust in your commitment to justice and the preservation of our constitutional rights. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. #jainism
