Rajasthan Temple new dress code: No entry to visitors wearing ripped jeans, mini-skirts, frocks, shorts
Jharkhand Mahadev Temple in Jaipur district has introduced a dress code for devotees and asked them to refrain from wearing ripped jeans, shorts, frocks, night suits and mini-skirts. The committee put up a banner at the temple, stating that persons wearing such clothes would not be allowed entry and that they would have to offer prayers outside the structure.
"It is a good decision. It will promote our Sanatan culture.
It should be implemented in other temples as well," says a devotee, as quoted by the news agency ANI. President, Jharkhand Mahadev Temple, Jayprakash Somani said the directions have been passed after many devotees complained that visiting the temple in torn jeans and mini-skirts was against the Indian culture.
The management said both men and women visiting the temple should put on "decent clothes". On Thursday, Jammu and Kashmir's renowned 'Bawe Wali Mata' temple management introduced a dress code, urging visitors to dress "decently" cover their heads, and refrain from wearing shorts, mini-skirts, ripped jeans, and capri pants on the premises.
