THRISSUR: The proposal to ban entry of policemen inside the famous Lord Krishna temple at Guruvayur will create chaos, a social organisation, here said.Secreary of the 'Janasevana Munnani', a social organisation, K Soman Pillai, said in a statement here today that avoiding policemen on duty inside the temple would create a lot of difficulties for the devotees visiting the temple in general and especially during the Sabarimala season from Nov 15 to Jan 16 every year. He threatened to go on fast from Nov 15 if the temple authorties do not reconsider their decision.It was estimated that over five million devotees from Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Pondicherry, Maharashtra and Delhi visit the temple either on their way to Sabarimala or return during the pilgrimage season, he said.Pillai said there are long queues of devotees every day in the temple and if policemen are not deployed inside the shrine, pick pockets and anti social elements would create chaos, he added.
