Grandson rectifies grandfather'smistake
It is well known that Dr B.R. Ambedkar staged a satyagrah for seeking entry in Kalaram temple of Nasik in 1930. The satyagrah lasted for five years, but did not achieve success. Some fundamentalist sanatani people became adamant to not to allow entry to their own brothers. RSS Swayamsevaks in Maharashtra and other patriotic people have been active for several years to rectify this mistake. They formed a Samajik Samarasta Manch in the state. Recently a unique function was organised at that Kalaram temple in Nasik. The grandson of the priest, Ramdas Mahraj, who had stopped Baba Saheb to enter the temple, rectified the mistake and publicly apologised. ?I apologise for the mistake that my grandfather committed by not allowing Baba Saheb to enter the temple,? said Mahamandaleshwar Sudhir Maharaj, grandson of Ramdas Maharaj. Shri Mohan Bhagwat, RSS Sarkaryavah, Shri Madhubhai Kulkarni, Akhil Bharatiya Bauddhik Pramukh and Shri Ramesh Patange, editor, Vivek, were also present on the occasion. Four samrasata yatras were also taken out in the region. (Sanghmarg)
