Big decision of Shani Shingnapur Devasthan, 167 employees dismissed, including 114 Muslim employees

Ahilyanagar: Shani Shingnapur temple in Ahilyanagar has taken a big decision. 167 employees working at Shani Devasthan have been dismissed from work. Among the dismissed employees were 114 Muslim employees. Shani Devasthan has given an explanation that the employees were dismissed due to irregularities and non-compliance with discipline.
Meanwhile, for the past few days, Hindu organizations had been pressuring the Muslim employees to be fired. On the fourth day of Shani Dev, a protest was held on behalf of the entire Hindu community due to the work being done by Muslim people.
A warning was given that a large march would be taken out by the entire Hindu community outside the temple on June 14.
The controversy had escalated over the appointment of Muslim employees at the famous religious place Shri Kshetra Shani Shingnapur Temple in Ahilyanagar district. Hindu organizations have become aggressive against the 114 Muslim employees working at the Shani Shingnapur Temple Trust. The organization demanded that the trust immediately remove all Muslim employees from work. Otherwise, it had also warned that a big march would be taken out by the entire Hindu community outside the temple on June 14.
On May 21, 2025, Muslim craftsmen installed a grill on the holy platform of the temple and cleaned and painted the platform of Lord Shani. The matter had heated up even more then. As soon as the information about this incident came to light, the Maharashtra Temple Federation and Hindu organizations raised strong objections. After that, the temple’s board of trustees has decided to remove all Muslim employees. The temple trust had given a clarification in this regard, according to which it has admitted that 114 Muslim employees work in the trust. However, according to the trust, none of these Muslim employees are on duty in the main sanctum or on the platform of the temple. These employees are mainly working in the agriculture department, waste management department and education-related work. Out of these, 99 employees have been absent from work for the last five months and their salaries have also been stopped. The remaining 15 employees have been serving for many years, some of whom have more than 20 years of experience. Hindu organizations were aggressive in demanding the dismissal of 114 Muslim employees working at the Shani Shingnapur Temple Trust. They had also warned of taking out a protest tomorrow (June 14) in this regard.

Senior Maharashtra Official and Former Minister Caught in Honey Trap: Complaint Filed but Investigation Still Incomplete

According to reports, the former minister and a senior government official are accused of being trapped by several women, leading to difficulties in both their personal and professional lives. Complainants allege that these officials were influenced by the allure of women, leading to the acquisition of sensitive information.
However, despite the case reaching the police, the pace of the investigation has been slow. Sources indicate that there has been no significant progress in the case, even after the identification of the officials, raising several questions. Many believe that political pressure could be a factor in slowing down the proceedings.

The city’s police have yet to issue any official statement on the matter. This incident has sparked a stir across Maharashtra and is reverberating in political circles as well.
Concerns are being raised that if a thorough investigation is not conducted, it could undermine the public’s trust in the government. More updates on this case are expected in the coming days as the police department takes concrete steps toward the investigation.
This incident in Maharashtra’s politics has not only sparked discussion about security but also highlighted the need for awareness about issues like honey traps.
