AP: Shri Ganesh’s ancient murti vandalized by miscreants in search of hidden treasure

In a horrific incident, the murti of Shri Ganesh was vandalized by unidentified miscreants in one of Andhra Pradesh’s ancient Ganapati temples in Firangipuram, Guntur. The miscreants broke the stomach part of the murti and fled from the spot.

According to the One India report, the incident is said to have happened on the night of April 3. The miscreants entered the temple and vandalized the murti in search of some hidden treasure. The miscreants fled from the spot and left the broken murti at the temple after failing to locate the alleged treasure.

The information was made public by BJP State Secretary Vishnuvardhan Reddy who slammed the state government over similar repeated incidents. He shared the video of the vandalized murti of Lord Ganesh and expressed anger. He also said that no action has been taken by the state government over similar repeated attacks on the Hindu temples and murtis.

Further, he demanded CM Jagan and DGP Rajendranath Reddy take strict action against those who vandalized the murti of Ganesha. Many Hindu temples in the state have faced vandalism and theft in recent months.
