वृंदावन में बांके बिहारी मंदिर प्रशासन ने क्यों बंद की मीडिया की एंट्री, नाराज़ हुए पुजारी

Описание: In this report by Saurabh Shukla for The Red Mike, the spotlight is on the simmering discontent in India's holy cities, specifically *Vrindavan*. Following recent controversies at Varanasi’s Manikarnika Ghat, the focus has shifted to the iconic *Banke Bihari Temple*, where the administration’s heavy-handedness is rubbing both priests and devotees the wrong way.

Administration vs. Tradition: A High-Powered Committee is making decisions that many feel bypass centuries-old Vedic traditions.
Media Gag: In a sudden move, media coverage inside the temple premises has been completely banned.
The Corridor Conflict: The proposed Banke Bihari Corridor remains a flashpoint, with locals fearing the loss of the historic "Kunj Galiyan" (narrow lanes).
Political Undertones: Formerly staunch supporters of the ruling government are now expressing feelings of betrayal, using strong words like "Kans ki Sarkar" (government of Kansa).

Segment 1: The Media Ban and Growing Restraint
[00:00:00 - 00:03:30]

Saurabh Shukla opens the discussion by highlighting a pattern of silencing voices in religious hubs. After the friction in Varanasi regarding the demolition of ancient platforms at Manikarnika Ghat, a similar "iron curtain" is being drawn in Vrindavan. The administration has banned media inside the Banke Bihari Temple to prevent the broadcast of protests and mismanagement.

Saurabh Shukla [02:53]*"आनन-फानन में हाई कमेटी की एक मीटिंग होती है और उसमें यह निर्णय ले लिया जाता है कि मीडिया कवरेज मंदिर के अंदर पूरी तरीके से बैन है... जब-जब सरकार को या प्रशासन को डर लगता है तो मीडिया को बाहर कर दिया जाता है।"

Segment 2: Breaking the Tradition of 'Jagmohan' Darshan
[00:03:31 - 00:07:00]

The core of the recent flare-up was the administration's decision to move the deity, Banke Bihari Ji, from the Garbhagriha to the Jagmohan for daily viewing. The Goswami community argues that the deity only comes out on special festivals like Teej. Moving Him daily just to manage crowds is seen as a direct violation of religious protocols.

Goswami Priest [10:54] *"ठाकुर जी जब अंदर विराजमान होते हैं सिर्फ तीज त्यौहार पर ही बाहर निकलते हैं तो ये डेली क्यों? ये परंपराओं का क्यों बिगाड़ा जा रहा है? क्यों ये सारी चीजें करी जा रही है? मैं इसके समर्थन में नहीं हूं।"

Segment 3: The 'Lockdown' of the Sanctum Sanctorum
[00:07:01 - 00:12:00]

Tensions peaked when images emerged of a lock and chain on the gates of the *Garbhagriha*. While the administration claimed these were just temporary barricades to prevent a stampede and ensure the safety of the deity on the platform, the visual of "God behind bars" triggered an emotional outburst.

Committee Representative [09:32] "यह जो भ्रांति फैलाई जा रही है कि मंदिर के गर्भ गृह पर ताला लगाया गया यह बिल्कुल गलत है... वह बैरिकेडिंग जंजीर से इसलिए कसा गया कि कहीं वह फिसल ना जाए और कोई उससे हादसा ना हो जाए।"*

Segment 4: Devotee Outrage and the Vastu Conflict
[00:12:01 - 00:15:24]

The video captures the raw emotion of devotees and scholars who argue that temple layouts are based on Vastu Shastra and spiritual energy, not just logistics. One scholar pointed out that the Garbhagriha is designed to pool energy, and by changing the spot of worship, the administration is destroying the spiritual fabric of the temple.

Devotee [14:36] "प्रशासन के आते हुए भगवान को जंजीरों में बांध के जिस तरह से हुआ... जंजीरें हमारे गले में डाल दो, हमें बंद करो... पर हमारे बिहारी जी सदैव स्वतंत्र हैं।"

Conclusion

The situation is no longer just about crowd management; it has evolved into a battle for the soul of the city. By prioritizing tourism and corridors over the sentiments of the Sevayats and the sanctity of ancient traditions, the administration risks a long-term fallout with a community that was once its pillar. The consensus from the ground is clear: development is welcome, but not at the cost of the deity's dignity.
