Supreme Court refuses to intervene in sai baba case against Shankracharya



Apex court denies intervening in Sai Baba controversy and has suggested the devotees of Sai Baba to file a civil complaint or criminal case against the Shankracharya.  One month back the plea was filed by the Saidham trust from Mumbai Maharashtra against Shankaraycharya to stop giving statements against the Sai Baba and asking to stop worshipping Sai Baba and also to place the idols and photographs of sai baba in the various temples.

It was also demanded in the plea to disallow the media for spreading negative news about Sai baba. 

According to Shankaracharya Sai Baba is not a god and should not be worshipped as he is nowhere mentioned in vedas and shastra. He also said that he will continue his campaign even if he is put in jail and will keep on protecting the sanctity of Hindu religion.
