Kandararu Rajeevaru  

On January 2, the chief priest of the Sabarimala temple Kandararu Rajeevaru had closed the doors of the shrine for performing Suddhikalasam (purification rituals) after it was confirmed that two women entered the temple through the back gate and had the darshan of Lord Ayyappa.

 

Sasikala, a woman from Sri Lanka, came with ‘Guruswami’ to Sabarimala and had the darshan of Lord Ayyappa at 10.46 PM on Thursday.  The Kerala Police revealed this and they released the CCTV footage of the Sannidhanam. It is alleged that this was a police trap to send Sasikala back safely.
 

Devotees have been asked to move away from the Sannidhanam to perform Suddhikalasam in the temple. The chief priest, Kandararu Rajeevaru closed the temple doors according to the instruction of the Thantri
