"If the pooja of the sacred lingam at Kedarnath shrine is not performed soon, India will face a great danger. There can be risk of the Chinese soldiers intruding. I will meet the President and ask him to intervene", said the Shankaracharya.
The shankaracharya says, a lot of disinformation is being disseminated by the government. "One one hand, they say 10-feet high mud and rubble is lying in the shrine, and on the other, it is saying the three-feet high jyotirlingam is intact. Which one is true?", asked the saint.
The chief priest Rawal Bhima Shankara Linga Shivacharaya Mahaswami says, the shankaracharya does not know the traditional pooja rites at Kedarnath.
