The need of the hour is a regulator. We first need a regulator in place before the government lets go the temple administration.
Something like RCIRA (Religious and Charitable Institutions Regulatory Authority). We can also meet the Jitni Aabadi Uthna Haq of RaGa in this. This authority can be made up of members from all castes/communities in proportion to their population.
These members can elect a Governing Council which will have the final say on the administration of every Religious and Charitable Institution. State Govt secretaries can be ex-officio members of the council. Such a Governing council can also establish regional tribunals for dispute resolutions and such problems of Laddus/ Ghee.
The word should be ‘peopleised’ not privatised. From governmentalisation it should be peopleisation. Owned, managed and run by the bhaktas and ordinary people, not government bureaucrats who neither have the necessary devotion nor the skills.

Nice to see the author here. Firstpost flourished under him, comment section was lively there. I miss those days.
