Guest guest Posted July 15, 2004 Report Share Posted July 15, 2004 CRISIS IN MAYAPUR by Sri Chaitanya Gaudiya Math / Sri Mayapur dham Sri Sri Guru Gauranga Jayatah! The present government of West Bengal is working on a development plan for Mayapur, which includes erecting a bridge between Mayapura and Navadwip and widening the roads. For the road-widening project, the government wants to appropriate the land of several maths in the area. The Department of Public Works has served legal notices to all the maths in Mayapur. The designated land includes frontal parcels, ghats, temples, samadhi mandirs, as well as guesthouses of several Gaudiya Maths. The designated area even includes the Gopeshwar Shiva Temple of Mayapur. The activity to widen the road will include the demolition of all the structures in this designated land area, which even includes temples and samadhi mandirs. Many missions of the disciples of Our Great Preceptor, Srila Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur Prabhupada are in a critical situation. They are planning to seek the help of the courts. According to Vaishnavas, those who are involved in this destructive activity are committing a great offence to the Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu and His associates. The ultimate results of such activity will be most unfortunate. We hope that all the devotees worldwide will oppose such action.
