About 15 monks and saints along with Mauni Baba and Bhagwata Das, who had been staying in the Badrinath Dham for many years, had reached the shrine after the opening of the Badrinath Temple, but due to the Corona Guidelines, no one was allowed to visit Badrinath Dham. Moni Baba says that he has been living in Badrinath Dham for the last 30 years. While following the Guru tradition, they take food only after having seen Lord Badrinath for six months, but this time the Badrinath Dham darshan is not allowed.
Sages on fasting from May 23 for Badrinath darshan
Devasthanam Board officials were requested to visit Badrinath ji from far away, but sadhus and saints are not being heard, due to which, from May 23, Mauni Baba and Bhagwata Das start fasting in their ashram.
On Thursday, SDM Kumkum Joshi held talks with the sadhus, but they remained adamant on demanding Badrinath darshan. SDM Kumkum Joshi said that the sadhus were subjected to health tests by doctors and all are healthy.
