Bengaluru, Oct Several Kannada television channels on Thursday aired a secret sex video featuring a Hindu religious leader and a young woman which led to public outrage. Dayananda S, junior pontiff of the Hunasamaranahalli Samsthana, was caught on camera in a compromising position. The mutt, in Hunasamaranahalli near the Kempegowda International Airport, has a history of years.
Protesters shouted slogans, and said Dayananda and his father had brought disrepute to the mutt. Tension prevailed at the mutt soon after the video was aired on television. Trustees chased away Niranjan, associated with the mutt, who came to pacify them.
Wadiyar was the last maharaja of Mysuru. Dayananda and Parvatharaja Shivacharya swami have sold hundreds of acres to private parties, he alleged. Revenue officials inspected the mutt on Thursday to see if any portion had been sold off. Protesters lodged complaints with the deputy commissioner, assistant commissioner and the police.
Trouble had been brewing since , when Parvatharaja Shivacharya Swami, heading the mutt, hastily appointed his son Dayananda as his successor. Trustees have challenged the decision before the high court. They allege the two have quietly sold parcels of land belonging to the mutt.
