Shiva Worship Not A Religious Act!

The IT Commissioner of IT, Nagpur Appellate Tribute averred that worship of Lord Shiva,Hanuman and Goddess Durga is not a Religious Act and disallowed the expenses incurred in conducting Pooja on this account by Shiv Mandir Devstan Panch Committee,Nagpur!

He refused to allow more than 5% of expenses incurred.

Are the Hindu temples coming under HR& CE taxed and if so under what Rules?

Is the haj Pilgrimage taxed ?

If not it has to be disallowed on the ground that it is nothing but going around Stone!

The knowledgeable Commissioner also states that 'Technically, Hinduism is neither a Religion nor a Community”

The first part, strictly applying the Vedas is correct.

The second part that it is not a community is incorrect.
if the IT Commissioner's ruling on Hinduism is correct (It is), then India should declare it as India’s State Policy as it suits more to its ‘Secular image definition!’

Bangalore Demolition Separate Law for Ranganathan Street?

Note the last para in conjunction with the fact that the BBMP had gone ahead because "'The BBMP has entered into a joint development agreement with the Maverick Holding and Investment Pvt. Ltd. to construct multi-level residential complexes for the original 1,512 EWS allottees in around seven acres of the 15 acres and commercially exploit the remaining prime property by constructing a mall. Each acre here is worth Rs.10 crore to Rs.12 crore"
Also the fact the illegally constructed shops doing Crores of Turn over in Ranganathan street,T.Nagar,Chennai went scot free after an initial show of token demolition and it was "business as usual"

Laws, it seems, are different for the privileged!

(The court in a magnanimous gesture allowed them to stay for a year!)
