MAYILADUTHURAI: The Madurai Adheenam must withdraw the appointment of Nithyananda within ten days or else the matter would be taken both to the government and the court, said a resolution passed at a meeting of eleven Adheenams on Tuesday in Mayiladuthurai.
The meeting had been called by Dharmapuram Adheenam with the concurrence of Thiruvavaduthurai Adheenam to discuss the issue of the controversial Nithyananda being elevated to the Madurai Peedam. There are a total of 18 Adheenams in Tamil Nadu. The meeting on Tuesday passed three resolutions, one of which delivered an ultimatum to the incumbent Madurai Adheenam to mend his ways and not meddle with religious matters of highest importance. The second resolution said that if he did not comply with the demands of the first resolution then the matter would be taken to the government for decisive arbitration. The third resolution said that if the government too failed to find an amicable solution then the committee of Adheenams would be left with no other option but to knock at the doors of relevant courts till the matter is resolved and the people of dubious distinctions are thwarted from occupying high offices of religious importance. The meeting also underlined the point that such controversies set a bad precedence both in public and religious life.
