Hyderabad: Chevella MP G Ranjith Reddy on Thursday said he would request Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao to take up the issue of deity rights.

Speaking after offering prayers at Chilkur Balaji temple, he said that he had written to Justice Venkatachaliah to give his views on constitutionality of Article 363. “Since the State government has worked for revival and conservation of temple system, we wish to represent the wish of devotees for justice as per dharma on Article 363 Hindu Deity Rights dispute that is pending with the President,” he said.

In view of the fact that two former Judges of the High Court and former Chief Secretary have already given opinions favorable to Hindu deities, the right course was to refer the dispute to a panel of retired Judges of the Supreme Court headed by former Chief Justice of India Justice Venkatachaliah.

Tamil Nadu and Kerala have inherited Constitutional obligation of covenant with Sri Padmanabha Swamy Ruler Deity arising from Trippadidanam deed of dedication of Travancore Kingdom to deity as is clear from Article 290A.

“Tamil Nadu and Kerala were by nature devoted to God. The word God is to be understood as per its meaning in the Constitutional oath explained through discussion in Constituent Assembly and summarised by Dr BR Ambedkar (Constituent Assembly debate 27th December 1948 on Oath under Article 60),” he said.

“We feel such a decision by the Centre will protect the spirit of Article 143 advice in the context of Article 363. We suggest that the panel be headed by Justice Venkatachaliah as he headed the National Commission on working of the Constitution,” he said.

“Due to Sabarimala judgment, it is very clear that our Constitution is not working to protect Hindu deity interests,” he added.
