Shirdi dam Alan today due to controversy over Saibaba's birthplace

Mumbai, Ta. January 18, 2020, Saturday

Shirdi has been called on Sunday due to controversy over the birthplace of Saibaba. In this backdrop, the local representative of the area, Radhakrishna Vikhe-Patil, made a press conference to the local representative of the area and made it clear.

The dispute has begun as the stonespouts of Parbhani district are being demanded to announce the birthplace of Saibaba. Vikhe Patil said that information has been given to Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray.

There is no evidence of stones about Baba's birth. The issue was also disputed in the British period, but no evidence was found. The government should note that the hearts of millions of Sai devotees are upset. Vikhe Patil also said that this misunderstanding should be taken by taking steps for Sai organization.

Patil further said that I have the support of Shirdi Bandh as the representative of this section. Even if Shirdi is to be closed, Sai temple and devotees' residence will be open. About 25 villages are joining the Bemudat Dam.

Citizens and those arriving by plane who have booked the hotel will not be bothered, only the market is closed. Essential services are kept out of the closure.

Not long ago, Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray mentioned the stone as the birthplace of Saibaba during a visit to Aurangabad.

He also announced to allocate Rs 100 crore for the development of the beds as a pilgrimage area. Following the announcement of the Chief Minister, there was widespread anger among Sai devotees, including Shirdi.

The Shirdi residents say that we have no objection to the development of Pathri village but we are opposed to mentioning Pathri village as the birthplace of Saibaba. Chief Minister Thackeray himself is a devotee of Saibaba. He should know the spirit of the Shirdi people.
