Bankey Bihari Temple Shuts Down For Devotees Due To Difficulties in Management

Following accusations of mismanagement and failure in following COVID-19 norms, Vrindavan's Bankey Bihari Temple authorities have decided to close the temple for an indefinite period. The temple which was earlier shut owing to the pandemic, opened only on October 17, for Navaratri. The first day witnessed a whooping 26,000 devotees which made it tough to impose COVID protocols. Reportedly, many of the devotees also failed to wear masks and take precautions.
