Super Six With Akshita Nandagopal: Major Row Erupts Over Use Of Temple Funds For College

A political controversy has erupted in Tamil Nadu over the use of temple funds to build government colleges. AIADMK chief Edappadi K. Palaniswami accused the DMK-led government of diverting donations meant for temples to construct colleges. The DMK defended the practice, stating it has been done for years and temple funds are used for humanitarian needs like education. This has reignited the debate on whether temple funds should be used solely for temple development or can be utilized for broader social welfare. The AIADMK and BJP have criticized the government’s actions, while the DMK argues temples have historically supported education in the state. The issue has become a major political flashpoint ahead of next year’s assembly elections in Tamil Nadu. In Karnataka, there’s widespread panic over heart attacks, with large crowds gathering at Mysore’s Jayadeva Hospital for check-ups. The Karnataka High Court has stayed a state government order to close Jan Aushadhi Kendras in government hospitals, seen as a setback for the Siddaramaiah government. The BJP has criticized the state’s move to shut these centers. CM Siddaramaiah and Deputy CM D.K. Shivakumar are in Delhi seeking separate meetings with Rahul Gandhi, amid speculation about leadership changes. From Kerala, there’s an urgent appeal for Indian nurse Nimisha Priya, facing execution in Yemen on July 16th, with limited options for reprieve.
