Despite such assurance/guarantee from the Constitution, it is surprising to find that the Govt has managed to intervene in matters of religious institutions (temples) in the pretext of “streamlining activities”. And what makes it more illogical is the discrimination, because the Govt has intervened only for Hindu religion and not for any other religion. This actually started with the implementation of an act called “Madras Hindu Religious Endowments Act” in 1923 (During British Rule), which became “Hindu Religious and Charitable Endowments Act XXII” in 1959 and has been implemented in several states in India in different forms, and despite several variations, the core idea is Govt control and fact remains that Govt seeks control of all the Hindu temples (i.e Some term it as “Nationalization of Temples”).
As per this law, the Govt has every right to acquire Hindu temples and it already has control of more than 250,000 temples in Karnataka, more than 400,000 temples in Andhra and similarly lakhs of temples in other states. As per this law, all the revenues generated by the temple (including Hundi funds) will go to the Govt (not the temple priests/heads) and it is the prerogative of the Govt to decide how much of this revenue will be returned to the temples for their maintenance.
Here is one such act implemented in Karnataka in 1997 superseding all the previous acts.
