IN BRIEF All set for Vizag Fintech Fest today VISAKHAPATNAM The Port City is all set to become a beehive of activity for domain experts, investors and CEOs of various companies involved in financial technology as the Vizag Fintech Festival will begin here on Monday. The highlight of the festival is the ‘$1 Million Startup Challenge’, an address followed by a brief interaction by world’s first humanoid robot Sophia and a cultural performance by artists from the United States. As Sabarimala continued to be on the boil over the Su- preme Court verdict grant- ing unrestricted entry to wo- men into the temple, the stance adopted by key players, the Congress, the BJP and the CPI(M), presents an interesting scenario. The Left Democratic Front constituents, mainly the CPI(M) and the CPI, con- tinue to stand pat on their stated position that the Kera- la government is constitu- tionally obliged to honour the verdict and provide pro- tection to all believers arriv- ing for a darshan. The Congress and the BJP may have dithered initially but have shifted their posi- tion subsequently by declar- ing solidarity with the faith- ful, sensing the political setback they would have suf- fered otherwise. The Travancore Devas- wom Board (TDB) that man- ages the temple too has re- neged from its tough position and offered to go the extra mile to end the im- passe. Difficult time The Congress and the BJP have had a difficult time ar- ticulating their views after their national leaderships had hailed the verdict as pro- gressive and one that en- sures gender equality. Leader of the Opposition Ramesh Chennithala and BJP State president P.S. Sreedha- ran Pillai were at a loss ex- plaining the apparent con- tradiction in the stance adopted nationally while the State units aligned with the believers. In due course, the latter managed to win the grudg- ing endorsement of their na- tional leaders. CPI(M) stance CPI(M) State committee member Anathalavattom Anandan recalls how succes- sive State governments led by the LDF had implemented the High Court verdict ban- ning women’s entry to the temple. Congress focus Congress publicity cell con- vener K. Muraleedharan says the party stands by the affi- davit the State government filed in 2016 seeking to stick to the rituals of the temple. But he admits that the na- tional leadership’s direction to Congress activists to join the protests without party flag would prove costly. “We are aware of this real- ity. Hence, the focus of our agitation would be on the de- mand to promulgate an ordi- nance while supporting the demand of the faithful to protect the rituals of the tem- ple,” he says. BJP State spokesperson M.S. Kumar admits that there was initial dithering on the party stance, especially in the wake of RSS general secretary Suresh Joshi wel- coming the verdict. “That might be due to a minor lapse in comprehending the traditions of the temple. Now the national leaders of the RSS and the BJP reiterate the need to protect the tem- ple’s tradition. The State go- vernment can now seek opi- nion from eminent jurists to settle the issue,” he says. But who will ultimately benefit from the no-holds- barred campaign to gain pol- itical mileage from the issue is something that exercises the minds of leaders and ob- servers alike. Parties dilly-dally on Sabarimala row State units in Kerala had a tough time in explaining the divergent stances of national leaderships N.J. Nair THIRUVANANTHAPURAM Pilgrims’ progress: After days of violent protest, Sabarimala temple once again saw a surge in crowds on Sunday. * H. VIBHU The Crime Branch (CB) pol- ice have opened a criminal investigation against former Kerala Chief Minister Oom- men Chandy on suspicion of having abused solar energy investment fraud case ac- cused Saritha S. Nair sexual- ly at his official residence here in 2013. The agency told a magis- trate court here last week that it was investigating Mr. Chandy on the suspicion of having committed a sexual act on Ms. Nair in return for using his high office to pro- mote her business. The CB had also booked K.C. Venugopal, MP, on the charge of having raped Ms. Nair when she went to meet a lawmaker at the official re- sidence of then Tourism Mi- nister A.P. Anil Kumar. Sworn statements Meanwhile, CB officers said on Sunday that Ms. Nair had lodged specific complaints against six more United De- mocratic Front (UDF) lead- ers. She had expressed wil- lingness to give sworn statements against her al- leged exploiters in-camera to a magistrate. The sex scandal had re- surfaced to haunt the UDF after a hiatus of one year and at a time when it was laying the groundwork for the Parliamentary election in 2019. The Sivarajan Commis- sion that probed the so- called solar scam had opened a Pandora’s box of sexual allegations against a galaxy of UDF leaders when it submitted its findings to the Pinarayi Vijayan govern- ment in September 2017. The Cabinet had accept- ed the commission’s recom- mendation to charge those who had sought and re- ceived sexual favours from Ms. Nair as an illegal gratifi- cation to back her invest- ment schemes. Mr. Chandy countered the government’s move by convincing the Kerala High Court in May 2018 to ex- punge the commission’s findings and observations against him. Saritha accused him of sexual abuse Special Correspondent Thiruvananthapuram Oommen Chandy Probe initiated against Chandy A single tweet from film journalist Sridevi Sridhar, wishing actor Dileep and his family, provoked angry reactions from women ac- tors, who were all offended at the praise for someone accused of masterminding the abduction and assault of an actor. Ms. Sridhar had on Friday tweeted a wish to Dileep and Kavya on the birth of their baby girl. Actors Lakshmi Manchu, Tapsee Pannu, Rakul Preet Singh were among those who reacted. Scribe’s wishes to Dileep provoke angry comments Staff Reporter THIRUVANANTHAPURAM Protests triggered by the Su- preme Court verdict grant- ing entry for women of all ag- es to Sabarimala temple are feared to rock the financial base of the Travancore De- vaswom Board (TDB) and af- fect the functioning of 1,188 temples managed by it. As many as 1,249 temples from Parassala in the capital to Perumanam in Thrissur come under the board. TDB commissioner N. Vasu told The Hindu here that only about 61 temples, including Sabarimala, were self-suffi- cient and the rest were hea- vily reliant on the income earned from other temples for their sustenance. That means any dip in in- come from Sabarimala would debilitate the func- tioning of 1,118 temples ex- tending from the Mahadeva temple at Parassala to the Sankaranarayana temple at Perumanam. Salary revision The monthly salary and pen- sion bills of the board have been estimated at ₹500 crore. It has about 5,000 em- ployees and 4,000 pension- ers. The present board had revised the salary and other benefits of employees and this would add to its finan- cial burden. A major dip in returns may even affect the conduct of routine rituals and pujas in temples. In addition to these are a slew of maintenance, con- struction and other civil works that have been com- missioned and tendered in various temples. The board would be forced to defer works that have not yet commenced and put a halt to those that have already been commis- sioned. Temple impasse may hit TDB finances Fall in income may affect the conduct of routine rituals and pujas in 1,188 shrines As many as 1,249 temples come under the TDB. special correspondent THIRUVANANTHAPURAM Bharatiya Janata Party State president P.S. Sreedh- aran Pillai has urged the Kerala government to get a resolution passed by the Assembly, seeking the Cen- tral government’s interven- tion in the Sabarimala issue.

Protests triggered by the Su­preme  Court  verdict  grant­ing entry for women of all ag­es to Sabarimala temple arefeared  to  rock  the  fi��nancialbase  of  the  Travancore  De­vaswom Board (TDB) and af­fect the functioning of 1,188temples managed by it. 

As many as 1,249 templesfrom Parassala in the capitalto  Perumanam  in  Thrissurcome under the board. TDBcommissioner  N.  Vasu  toldThe Hindu here  that  onlyabout 61 temples, including

Sabarimala,  were  self­suffi��­cient and the rest were hea­vily  reliant  on  the  incomeearned  from  other  templesfor their sustenance.

That means any dip in in­come  from  Sabarimalawould  debilitate  the  func­tioning  of  1,118  temples  ex­tending from the Mahadevatemple  at  Parassala  to  theSankaranarayana  temple  atPerumanam. 

Salary revisionThe monthly salary and pen­sion bills of  the board havebeen  estimated  at  ₹��500crore. It has about 5,000 em­ployees and 4,000 pension­ers. The present board hadrevised the salary and otherbenefi��ts  of  employees  and

this  would  add  to  its  fi��nan­cial burden.

A major  dip  in  returnsmay even aff��ect the conductof  routine  rituals and pujasin temples. 

In addition to these are aslew  of  maintenance,  con­struction  and  other  civilworks  that  have  been  com­missioned  and  tendered  invarious temples. 

The  board  would  beforced  to  defer  works  thathave  not  yet  commencedand put a halt to those thathave  already  been  commis­sioned.
