PRAYAGRAJ: Changing its earlier stand of opposition against the proposed Religious Places Registration Regulation 2020, Akhil Bharatiya Akhara Parishad (ABAP) said all 13 monastic orders under it would support whatever decision the state government takes.
The Akhara Parishad took this decision during a meeting at Baghambari Gaddi in Prayagraj on Friday. Be it Kinnar Akhara, Pari Akhara or any other monastic order which applies for getting registered as an akhara , we demand that the government should not entertain any such claim as there can t be any 14th akhara other that the 13 existing ones which are members of ABAP. Any organisation can merge with an existing akhara, but a separate akhara will not be accepted, said ABAP chief Mahant Narendra Giri.
