Friends so far I have avoided to allow form of news bulletin for this Blog. No doubt for exceptional matters like objections on Diksha and prohibited foods put before Jain temples I covered them. When there is an attempts to harm Jain religion as a whole I feel it must be given platform looking to religion fever atmosphere in our country.
Jain community is a large hearted one marked by big charitable Trusts. Trusts are made to look after wishes of Donors through Trustees. Deed of Trust duly registered with Charity Commissioner and Various other Acts take care that Trustees are running the Trusts as per guidelines spelled out by Trustees. Most of time the functions of Trust carried out correctly by trustees of Temples, hospitals or the colleges with due care, Elections are being held ,Audit of accounts is being done and tax returns are duly filed. On few occasions Greed in human surface and overtake good virtues of sacrifice and devotion. I cover herewith a sample case study of Pune related to HND hostel. It is run by Trust. Trust was formed in 1958 with a larger vision to help poor Jain students from remote places to have shelter while they engage in study with a Jain temple for daily religious activities. It served with it's object for all those years as Pune is a major education Hub for India. All metropolitan cities in India are facing scarcity for land or plot in central area of cities. The horrifying nexus between the local politicians and builder lobby is searching to grab land from weaker or greedy hands. In such situation trustee is easy soft target. Readers can search the HND story on google. A positive side is that total Jain community shown unity and took out march of more than 10k people to office of Charity Commissioner asking how he can permit demolition of Temple and student's Hostel. He brought it on record that interested trustee hide such things on paper. Now who are the real culprits will be out soon. A big thanks to Jain monks who lead the masses to protest against grab. The status not yet restored. Guru Maharaj given ultimatum of 1st November 2025 for it. If one study this case closely he will be surprised to see quick and super fast action behind curtain in shortest time. Now with shortage of land Redevelopment plans are becoming the rule of day.
