Watch: Police violently stop traditional rituals at Sree Kurumba Bhagavathi temple in Kerala

As the assembly election in Kerala gets near, shocking video footage of police trying to drag the oracles and Hindu devotees who wanted to perform the Kozhikallu Moodal, an ancient ritual of animal sacrifice and blood offering at the Sree Kurumba Bhagavathi temple near Kodungallur in the Trichur district in Kerala.

As per the footage, one can clearly see that the Police was deployed inside the temple who stopped the devotees and reportedly arrested nine persons in this connection.

As the group of oracles and devotees entered the temple and performed the ritual dance called Thullal District Collector, S Shanavas ordered the police to stop festival celebrations this year, overruling town council officials and elected representatives.

However, Hindus are angry why would anyone object to such a symbolic sacrifice when every year thousands of animals are slaughtered in our streets during Bakr-Eid as local administration turns a blind eye and emboldening a particular community that kills cows that is sacred to Hindus.

According to the communists, these rituals are banned as an attempt to reform Hindus ever since they had come to power in Kerala, even as other animals are killed and sold on the main roads in the state by Muslims and this also includes beef and other animals that are killed indiscriminately and in the most inhumane manner.

Also, the entire meat industry is controlled by the Halal mafia that economically discriminates against others and the state government does not heed to the voices of Hindus when Kerala hosts beef festivals and at the same time considers animal sacrifice in Hindu temples ‘cruel and regressive’?

The communist government in Kerala has stopped many Hindu religious events due to the Covid-19 pandemic which is perfectly normal and closed all Hindu temples. However, when it comes to festivals of Christians and Muslims respectful consultations are held with religious leaders of those communities.

The local administration under the thumb of the Communists has virtually sealed off Kodungallur which is now a no-go zone.

As per reports, the devotees were led by Chandala Baba Malavari, a young local saint, and his disciples entered the temple yesterday morning around 11 amid heavy police presence and they just attacked the devotees as soon as they took out the birds for the ritual sacrifice. 

Also, the police were inside the temple premises with boots inside the temple but at the same time, they do not have the guts to stop namaaz being offered on the main road by blocking traffic.

Now the cries of the local devotees have reached fever pitch but neither central nor state governments are paying attention to their demand as the demand for zero government interference with Hindu temples grows..
