A temple is not a place of tourist attraction – Temple Management BoardMost Temple Management Boards said in regard to a dress code being imposed in the temples in the State that a temple is not a place of tourist attraction. Devotees visiting temples should wear traditional clothes. A temple is a place of faith; everyone’s faith is associated with it. Hence, it is necessary to take care of such things. This is being done so that people should adopt Indian culture and not a foreign one. |
