It’s false.” These 4 Shankaracharyas head the principle mutts in Gujarat, Uttarakhand, Odisha, and Karnataka, based by the eighth-century seer Adi Shankara.
VHP’s Perspective

Whereas none are anticipated to be current on the grand occasion, they categorical their intention to go to the Ram temple “as per their comfort later.” Jyotirpeeth Sankaracharya Swami Avimukteshwaranand Saraswati opined, “The consecration ceremony on the Ram temple at this stage just isn’t proper as its building is but to be accomplished.”
