The High Court of Karnataka has restrained ISKCON Mumbai from removing Madhu Pandit dasa as the President of ISKCON Bangalore. The court has further instructed that Madhu Pandit dasa and other functionaries should continue to function and discharge their duties in accordance with bye laws.
The supervisory committee formed by ISKCON Mumbai is unconstitutional and it is a veiled method of interfering with the management of the temple, which the High Court has restrained them from.
Further, ISKCON Mumbai has to take de-facto physical possession of the temple only through a due process of law, through a procedure as approved by a court of law, and not just walk in.
The temple is a running organization having several moveable assets. Any change of hands has to be recorded through court supervision. We have also complained to the Police that our de-facto possession for all these years has to be protected until they have direction from the court.
Meantime we are preparing to appeal the Order of the High Court of Karnataka before the Supreme Court and obtain a stay order on the judgment before the expiry of six weeks. The supervisory committee has been formed by ISKCON Mumbai just to put impediments in the process of our appeal to the Supreme Court.
Yours in Service of God and mankind,
Madhu Pandit dasa
President, ISKCON Bangalore
