The construction of Gwalior – Sheopur broad gauge line in progress. Hanuman temple in Sabalgarh Taluka obstructs this construction. This land belongs to the Railways and the temple has been built on that land. Hence, the Railway has directly sent the notice to Deity Hanuman.

Editorial viewpoint

Does the Railway ever issue such notice to any church or mosque and take similar action ?
