Members of the Sri Jalakanteswarar Dharma Sthabanam and members of Federation of All Traders’ Associations of Vellore resisted the move of the Hindu Religious & Charitable Endowments Department officials to sell ‘archana’ tickets inside the temple here on Thursday.
The move of the HR & CE official comes in the wake of the department taking over the administration of the temple on June 22 through a government order issued on June 18.
