Sabarimala: Kerala witnesses a heated controversy as a man allegedly trespassed into Ponnambalamedu, a hilltop area connected to the revered Sabarimala Lord Ayyappa Temple, and conducted rituals, all captured in a viral video. Ponnambalamedu, located four kilometers from the temple, holds immense significance for Ayyappa devotees. The area, under strict control of the state forest department, is a high-security zone. The man, reportedly a Tamil Nadu native, had previously served at the Sabarimala temple and was dismissed for misconduct. The Travancore Devaswom Board, responsible for managing the shrine, plans to lodge a complaint, seeking a thorough investigation into the incident. Now, the video of a man performing rituals on Ponnambalamedu is going viral on social media.
