Politics clouds global Ayyappa meet as Hindu outfits allege another sacrilege
The New Indian Express Thrissur

WITH crucial local body and Assembly elections approaching, politics in the name of the Sabarimala hill shrine has once again turned murky.
WITH crucial local body and Assembly elections approaching, politics in the name of the Sabarimala hill shrine has once again turned murky. Hindu outfits have warned of another fiasco, alleging a fresh 'sacrilege' reminiscent of the 2019 massive protests triggered by a few women's attempt to enter the temple.
Amid preparations for the Global Ayyappa Sangam, several Hindu organisations, including the Ayyappa Seva Sangham, have voiced strong opposition to the meet.
Speaking to TNIE, Ayyappa Seva Sangham national vice-president D Vijayakumar said the outfit, founded in 1945 to propagate Ayyappa dharma, even before the Travancore Devaswom Board (TDB), has always remained apolitical and worked exclusively for devotees.

RAHUL'S REIGN OF RELENTLESS DEFEATS
IT began not with a whisper, but with a political detonation across the Gangetic plains. Last week, Bihar, always a keen weathervane for shifting political winds, delivered a verdict so mortifying for the Congress that even its most seasoned apologists struggled to dress it up. Contesting 61 seats, the party staggered out with a miserable six. It wasn't a defeat-it was a spectacle of collapse. And at its centre, as always, stood Rahul Gandhi, the prudish prince of a shrinking empire, presiding over the most dramatic political implosion in the history of a once-dominant national party.
