Jiddu Krishnamurthy was born on May 11, 1895, in Madanapalli, a small town in Andhra Pradesh. He belonged to an ordinary middle class Brahmin family. He lost his father and mother in his childhood. But there seemed to be peace, contemplation and mystery in the eyes of that little boy in his extraordinary childhood Famous people who once belonged to the "Theosophical Society" during the British era, an unknown person named Charles Leadbeater observed Krishnamurti. He thought, “This child will become a world teacher in the future.” That's why they took him and taught him the basic science of the world. Then he got a big position and prestige. He also established an organization named "Order of the Star". A solid rejection His extraordinary words at the age of 34 (in 1929) shocked the world.  ❝ I am not anyone's teacher. There is no path to truth. Everyone should know for themselves. Everyone was surprised. No one will give up such name, prestige and dominance. But Krishnamurthy had only one goal - every person should think independently, Know. His philosophy – in the mirror we see in ourselves After leaving the prestigious position, he gave speeches throughout his life, Spent time in discussions and philosophical writings. He had deep thoughts on many topics: How do we get scared? Is our love really pure? Are we looking for happiness outside? Is it not inside us? Who am I really because of our conditioning (customs, traditions, fears)? This is not education...this is a life experiment! Teacher who taught the meaning of education Krishnamurthy with the help of fans in India and America, Educational institutions were established in England. In these schools, there are questions rather than exams, humanity rather than marks, examination rather than books is given priority. Speeches to the world Until Jiddu Krishnamurthy death at the age of 90, he gave speeches world wise. He always asked about religion, politics and principles. Not only that – he always says: ❝ Observe life yourself. No guru is needed. Your questions are answered; you are the teacher.” Inspiring children: 1. To question. Know instead of just believing. 2. Choose your own path in life. 3. Courageously walk in the direction where the truth lies. 4. Know who you are, instead of imitating others. 5. Live every day anew – without being tied to the past. Questions to ask teachers: 1. What is the great thing that Krishnamurthy has achieved by sacrificing his life? 2. Do you think before believing someone? Why? 3. What should we really learn – more than lessons? 4. Observing life independently means what do you think about it? 5. What is our conditioning? How do I recognize it?

Global Hindu Heritage Foundation is proud to stand with the Armed Forces. We request every peace-loving person across the globe to unite behind Operation Sindoor to eliminate all kinds of terrorism and speak with one voice for peace and tranquility. We also thank Sri Narendra Modi for his vision, leadership, and commitment to eliminating terrorism. We are equally supportive of ‘Operation Sindoor” to trace and eliminate the terrorist infra-structures and sleeper cells.  GHHF is committed in supporting any and all activities India is undertaking to root out terrorism from the face of the earth.  Enough is enough.  As you are aware that on 22 April 2025, terrorists targeted Hindu tourists in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir. In response, India launched Operation Sindoor, targeting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir. Let us never forget about seven centuries of brutality, rapes, hangings, killings, Temple destruction, burnings, and occupation of lands. In the past 25 years, cross-border terrorism incidents involving Pakistan have claimed the lives of over 350 Indians and injured more than 800. Pakistan terrorism on India's security forces has also been devastating, with over 600 personnel killed and more than 1,400 injured. There is time for everything. This is the time to replace intolerance with tolerance, terrorism with peace, autocracy with democracy, hatred with love and hostility with kindness. Societies that believe in peace and tolerance will be wiped out unless they wipe out intolerance at any cost.  Unlimited tolerance will eliminate tolerance, peace, reasoning, logic, trust, truth, patience, morals, and along with them, it will root out the civilizations one by one. Societies must be intolerant toward intolerance and take all necessary steps to hunt down terrorism.  Global Hindu Heritage Foundation is proud of the courage, commitment, and determination to eliminate the scourge of thousand-headed terrorism wherever this poisonous snake is found. We stand united in support of Sri Narendra Modi and the Armed Forces in their gallant effort to protect the integrity of Bharath.  

“If I can't make it through one door, I'll go through another door- or I’ll make a door. Something terrific will come no matter how dark the present.” ― Rabindranath Tagore Rabindranath Tagore was born on May 7, 1861, in the house of Jorasanko Thakur, Calcutta (present Kolkata). His father, Devendranath Thakur, a great philosopher, founded a cultural organization called Brahmo Samaj, of which he was one of the founders. Sharda Devi was his mother Tagore used to be engrossed in a lot of thoughts since childhood. Instead of studying in school, seeing nature, observing birds, talking to trees – these are the Favorites. Tagore received primary education at home. He was taught specially. Later he studied in England for a few years, but even there he preferred traditional education. He did not like the methods. He wanted to learn from his heart, not just for the sake of books. He started writing poems at an early age. His first poetry collection was published at the age of 13! Tagore did not write just poems. He showed excellent talent in writing stories, plays, songs, music, and art, in all fields. He has written more than 2,000 songs. The most popular among them: Jana Gana Mana – Indian National Anthem Amar Sonaar Bangla – Bangla national anthem The genre of songs is called "Rabindra Sangeet". Tagore established a special school called Shantiniketan to teach the children. It became Visva Bharati University. Here, the lessons were read under the trees. The idea of studying amidst nature came from him. In 1913, he received the Nobel Prize for his poetry collection titled Gitanjali.  The first Nobel Prize came to India. At that time, the whole world was attracted to this talent. Tagore wrote against the British authority. He was given the honor of "Knight Hood" by the British Government. But following the Jallianwala Bagh massacre in 1919, he rejected the honor. This is an example of his patriotism Tagore died in Shantiniketan in 1941. But his writings and thoughts still influence us. His life teaches us the permanence of truth, beauty, and love. Motivational message for children: ● Every child has a specialty in itself. ● Studying is not for grades, but for understanding life. ● Nature, music, art – all these make us real human beings. ● If we increase our talent in the things we like, the world will recognize us. Questions to ask teachers: ● What is special about Shantiniketan School? ● Why did you reject the honor of “Knight Hood”? ● What things can we learn from Tagore ● Tell the works written by Tagore Donations are appreciated; By Zelle: ghhfusaorg@gmail.com PayPal: savetemples.org By Check: You can also send a check payable to GHHF,14726 Harmony Lane, Frisco, TX 75035.

“May the Cows come to us, may they bring welfare, may they sit in our home, may they be satisfied with us. May they be plentiful in calves, in different forms, and in large numbers, may they be available for milking at Dawn for Indra.” Rig Veda 6:28:1 Global Hindu Heritage Foundation is extremely happy to inform that we conduct puja to cow every week in one of the villages where people of all castes come united to participate in Gau puja. Our priest will help all the attended to do puja by identifying different parts of cow and respective gods.  Why is Gau Puja Important?  Cows are a manifestation of the Mother Goddess Gau Mata. Hindus believe the cow to be a sacred animal, providing life-sustaining milk. This milk is considered the divine prasadam or holy offering, and on select festivals, she is decorated and worshiped. In India, the cow is worshipped as a god called ‘Gaumata,’ indicating its nourishing nature like a mother. As per the legend, during Samudra Mantana, “Many gems, animal and gods emerged from ocean churning which took place between Gods and Demons. Kamadhenu, the divine also emerged during ocean churning which has the capacity to fulfil every desire. Once Kamadhenu reached the ashram of sage Vasishta. King Dilipan was childless. Hence, sage Vasishta advised him to worship Kamadhenu to obtain a child. The king started worshipping Kamadhenu and he was blessed with a child. Kamadhenu also helped sage Vashista in building up an army to fight a battle against Vishwamitra who wanted to take away Kamadhenu.” Gau puja represents the worship of Goddess Kamadhenu, the Gomata. She fulfills all your wishes. Performing Gou Pooja can remove all negativity and bestow you with wealth, happiness, and prosperity in life. Cows help to remove poverty, by giving health, wealth and comfort. The worshipping cow may remove the deadliest sins. Worshipping cows helps to repay debts and to overcome enemies. Nearly 36 deities have taken abode in the body of a cow and hence it is a sin to harm it. The base of cow horns is an abode of Lord Brahma and Lord Vishnu. Lord Shiva resides in the forehead and Goddess Uma resides in the middle of the forehead. The nose is an abode of Lord Ganesh, and the nose tip is the abode of Murugan. Lord Yama resides in the heart; holy river Yamuna resides in cow dung while Goddess Lakshmi resides at the hind part of the cow. The sages, rishis reside in the hair of the cow and other gods reside at the base of the tail. As per our scriptures, 33 crore deities reside in cows Ayurveda recommends Panchagavya to treat diseases of multiple systems, including severe conditions, with almost no side-effects. It can help build a healthy population, provide alternative sources of energy, complete nutritional requirements, eradicate poverty, pollution-free environment, organic farming, etc. Panchgavya can also give back to mother nature by promoting soil fertility, earthworm production, protecting crops from bacterial and fungal infections, etc. Scientific efforts shall be taken to build evidence for the clinical application of Cowpathy. The present review aims to summarize the health and medicinal benefits of Panchgavya. Panchgavya represents milk, urine, dung, ghee, and curd, derived from cow and serves irreplaceable medicinal importance in Ayurveda and traditional Indian clinical practices. In Ayurveda, Panchgavya treatment is termed as ‘Cowpathy’.  Cow Dung Benefits Each of the five cow products have health, agricultural and medicinal benefits. For example, the cow dung has the following benefits: Medicinally, cow dung serves as antifungal, antibacterial, skin tonic, antimalarial, and anti TB. It increases vision. It also treats boils, rashes, psoriasis and eczema.  Donations are appreciated; By Zelle: ghhfusaorg@gmail.com PayPal: savetemples.org By Check: You can also send a check payable to GHHF,14726 Harmony Lane, Frisco, TX 75035.

What a coincidence? Two major historic judgments on one single day at two different places.  On April 30, 2025, in New Deli, the Supreme Court of India issued a landmark judgment that said unauthorized constructions cannot be legitimized merely due to administrative delays, passage of time, or monetary investments, and issued a slew of directions to curb illegal constructions. ON April 30, in Amaravati, Andhra Pradesh, the High Court stated that “Only a person belonging to Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe can invoke the provisions of SC, ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.”  A Christian cannot be considered a member of SC/ST tribe. There is no caste system in Christianity. 1.    Supreme Court of India on unauthorized constructions. •    Unauthorised constructions must be demolished •    Regularization of buildings should not be considered •    Law should not rescue those who flout the rule of law •    Steps to be taken if any deviation/violation is brought to authorities. “We are of the opinion that construction(s) put up in violation of or deviation from the building plan approved by the local authority and the constructions which are audaciously put up without any building planning approval, cannot be encouraged. Each and every construction must be made scrupulously following and strictly adhering to the rules," it said "We must adopt a strict approach while dealing with cases of illegal construction and should not readily entertain regularisation of buildings erected without requisite permission from the competent authority. The need for maintaining such a firm stance emanates not only from inviolable duty cast upon the Courts to uphold the rule of law, rather such judicial restraint gains more force in order to facilitate the well-being of all concerned.”, the court added. "Unauthorised constructions, apart from posing a threat to the life of the occupants and the citizens living nearby, also have an effect on resources like electricity, groundwater and access to roads, which are primarily designed to be made available in orderly development and authorised activities,” it said. “A person who has no regards for the law cannot be permitted to pray for regularisation after putting up unauthorised construction of two floors. This has something to do with the rule of law. Unauthorised construction has to be demolished.” "Even after issuance of completion certificate, deviation/violation if any contrary to the planning permission brought to the notice of the authority immediate steps be taken by the said authority concerned, in accordance with law, against the builder/owner/occupant,” it said. 2.    High Court of Andhra Pradesh on disqualification of Christians to file Atrocities Act against Hindus. •    Case about a converted pastor qualification to file Atrocities Act against Hindus •    Court ruled pastor no longer retained Scheduled Caste status •    Caste system does not exist in Christianity •    The court cited 1950 order which specifies restrictions on SC status The Andhra Pradesh High Court has held that members of Scheduled Castes (SC) who convert to Christianity forfeit their SC status and, as a result, the benefits under the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act. Handed down by Justice N Harinath, the verdict has ignited an important debate not just on constitutional provisions but also on the integrity of affirmative action and social justice mechanisms in India. Chintada Anand, a pastor from Guntur district, who had filed a complaint under the SC/ST Act against one Akkala Ramireddy. Anand, who has been a practicing pastor for over a decade, alleged that Ramireddy and others had discriminated against him based on caste.  “The SC/ST Act is intended to protect communities facing caste discrimination. Its provisions do not extend to those who have adopted other faiths,” the court observed. “… this Court is of the considered view that the registration of crime under the provisions of SC ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act is illegal. It is also held that filing of charge sheet inspite of the categorical statements of the listed witnesses specifically stating that the 2nd respondent is working as a Pastor for the last 10 years, the police could not have laid a charge sheet charging the petitioners for alleged offence under Sections 3(1)(r), 3(1)(s), 3(2)(va), SC ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act.” Consequently, the Court ordered, “This Court is of the considered view that a false complaint is filed and no purpose would be served if the petitioners are relegated to the trial Court and to undergo the rigmarole of trial…criminal petition is allowed and Spl.SC.No.36 of 2021 on the file of IV Additional District and Sessions Judge – Cum – SC, ST Court, Guntur is hereby quashed.” Your donations are appreciated.

[GHHF] Sanatana Dharma Must be protected and preserved for Universal peace and harmony Lalith Kumar and Prakasarao Velagapudi were interviewed. Lalith Kumar, President of Hindu Jana Shakti and Prakasarao Velagapudi, President of Global Hindu Heritage Foundation talked about the richness and grandeur of Sanatana Dharam, how it is taking roots in USA, how to face the threats from other religions, and how do we preserve and protect Hinduism, and how to work at the ground level in the villages to make them Hindus and ensure they are not exploited.  https://youtu.be/6xr0BCwle3U

Global Hindu Heritage Foundation is extremely happy to inform that Rajesh Thunuguntla, National General Secretary of GHHF Bharat. We congratulate him on his persistence and determination to challenge the application of the Atrocities Act.  Major Points: •    A Christian Pastor filed a false case against Hindus who opposed the conversion and construction of Church. •    Mandal Officer gave a fake certificate saying that the Pastor was a Hindu, even though he was provided evidence that the Pastor was a Christian. •    Rajesh and Harsha challenged the false case filed by Pastor •    Andhra Pradesh High Court issued verdict saying a Christin cannot be SC/ST once they are converted to Christianity. •    Thousands of false Atrocities cases become invalid. The recent verdict by the Andhra Pradesh High Court regarding Christianization and the atrocities of Christians in India is like a slap in the face to such activities and government officials. The incident that occurred in Kothapalem village, Pittalavanipalem Mandal, which falls under the erstwhile Guntur district and the present Bapatla district, is an event that can provide direction to the entire nation. Once, Kothapalem village was entirely Hindu. Adjacent to this village is Khajipalem, where a fanatical Christian pastor named Chintada Anand resided. Operating a church in Khajipalem as his center, he engaged in conversions in several surrounding villages and would threaten Hindus who opposed him. In this process, Pastor Anand set his sights on Kothapalem village, which was 100% Hindu. He converted some individuals in the village through enticements and deceptive words and would denigrate Hindu deities. With the help of those who had converted, he planned to construct a church in Kothapalem. Some residents of the village did not like this. They believed that since the pastor constantly insulted Hindu deities and carried out conversions, the construction of a church would lead to many problems in the future, so they opposed its construction. Determined to build the church, the Christian pastor Chintada Anand filed a false complaint at the Chendolu Police Station against six individuals – Akkala Ramireddy, Venkata Reddy, Lakshma Reddy, Nagaraju, Manikanta, and Venkateswara Reddy – alleging that they had abused him using his caste name and attacked him. The strange thing here is that the pastor filed the complaint on 24/01/2021, but a day earlier, the villagers of Kothapalem had already filed a complaint at the police station stating that the pastor was insulting Hindu deities, behaving violently towards those who objected, and that his actions could lead to clashes in the village. Despite this, the police registered an FIR based on the pastor's complaint without even filing an FIR for the Hindus' complaint. This exemplifies how Christians influence the government and systems. After the police registered a false SC/ST Atrocities case against these six individuals, they were unsure of what to do and contacted Thunuguntla Rajesh, the National General Secretary of GHHF Bharat. Rajesh and Harsha encouraged them, held several meetings in the village, educated the villagers about the dangers of conversions, and assured them of their support in the legal battle against the false SC/ST Atrocities case filed by the pastor. To alleviate their fears regarding the SC/ST Atrocities case, they also brought Shyam Prasad Mukherji (Advocate) to the village for a meeting. While arguments were ongoing in the Guntur court regarding the false SC/ST Atrocities case filed by the police, a petition was also filed in the High Court to dismiss the case. Additionally, despite submitting evidence to the local MRO (Mandal Revenue Officer) proving that Chintada Anand was a Christian and a church pastor, the MRO issued a certificate confirming him as belonging to the SC (Scheduled Caste). This is another example of how much influence Christians have on the systems. Initially, the villagers were afraid, but later they stood firm and bravely fought against the false case filed against them. In this process, the Christian pastor exerted a lot of pressure on them to compromise. Local political leaders and the police repeatedly called the victims, threatening to withdraw the case filed in the High Court and not object to the construction of the church in their village. They even offered to withdraw the SC/ST Atrocities case if the villagers agreed. During this time, the SC/ST Commission also provided ₹2 lakh in cash to the Christian pastor – a government reward for filing a false case. Despite spending over four years going around police stations and courts, the villagers of Kothapalem did not lose courage and waged a righteous battle for Dharma. As a result, the Andhra Pradesh High Court delivered a historic verdict. This verdict is a slap in the face to all those who convert, illegally avail the reservations of Hindu brethren, and file false cases. It serves as a warning to those who work as pastors in our regions and illegally enjoy reservations, and it is a source of courage for activists who stand for Dharma in the face of difficulties. We are not going to leave this matter here. We are going to file another case against the MRO who issued a false SC certificate to the Christian pastor Chintada Anand despite providing sufficient evidence, against the police who filed a false case without proper investigation and caused mental anguish for over four years, and against the pastor who converted Hindus, insulted our deities, and filed a false case against the Hindu brothers who objected. Our plan is to ensure that the money received by the pastor from the SC/ST Commission is recovered, his SC reservation is canceled, and action is taken against the government officials involved. This will serve as a warning to those who intend to make false attacks on Hindus and Hinduism in the future. Your donations are appreciated.

"I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear." ― Nelson Mandela Alluri was born on 4 July 1897 in Pandarangi, Visakha district. His native village was Mogallu, West Godavari district. Father and mother were from a lower middle-class family. Father traveled to different areas as a profession. Accordingly, Alluri along with his family traveled to different places. He studied in different places – Narasapuram, Rajamahendram, Ramachandra Puram, Tuni, Kakinada and others. While studying the health of Alluri deteriorated, he was struck down by the cholera disease spread during the Godavari Pushkara season. Father died in 1908. After that his studies did not progress completely. Alluri went on a northern tour in 1916 with the aim of plunging into meditation. He visited various holy places. Made pilgrimages and returned to their home soil in 1918. Recognized the injustice being done to the tribals in the agency area since 1919. He fought for justice. He rebelled against extorting forest produce from tribals and not paying adequate wages for the work they do.   Even at the age of 20, he started traveling in the jungle. He worked for the tribal people in East Godavari and Visakha districts. There, the villagers rebelled against the atrocities of the British authorities. Especially in Manya, the British were working with the local elders, who were called gangsters. The robbery angered Alluri.  He rallied for the protection of the common people and started fighting. The British rebelled and decided to put an end to their plunder. It turned into an armed conflict for some time. British police led by Alluri Sitaram Raju and all the people united in their struggle for weapons.  Alluri team attacked police stations like Rajvommangi, Addathigala, Devipatnam, Chintapalli, Kedipet and others.  They went to areas hundreds of kilometers away and seized weapons within a day. Doing it became a sensation. The respect for Alluri increased among the people.  Alluri's respect increased and the movement intensified, the then government introduced. An attempt was made to stop the movement by sending additional police forces. In this sequence, some police personnel also lost their lives at the hands of Alluri Army. Their tombs are visible today in Narsipatnam of Visakha district. The armed conflict continued for three consecutive years. The military forces were deployed in the field to overcome all the rebellion. However, they could not control themselves. Even the army with Assam Rifles also joined. On the 7th of May 1924, he was shot dead by Major Gudal. The officer declared in his report. Alluri's body was shifted to Krishnadevi cemetery. The cremation rituals were performed there. That area has now been transformed into a memorial place. Allurani lost his life at the age of 27.  The British government arrested some of the 17 main followers who followed Alluri in this fight. Did it. He was imprisoned in various jails including Andaman. Others lost their lives in battle. With that this movement ended. But that inspiration continues. Things children should learn: Patriotism: Alluri Sitaram Raju died for his country.  His fight reminds us of the sacrifices we make for our country. Fight for justice: Seeing the injustice done to the villagers, he fought for justice. One must have the courage to confront the wrongs happening in society. Social Responsibility: Alluri Sitaram Raju dedicated his life to the welfare of the people. We should also be responsible towards society. Courage and Adventure: At a young age he fought against the British government. This is a great example of courage and determination. Sacrifice: He also sacrificed his life for freedom. Gives inspiration to sacrifice for the country. Questions to ask teachers: 1. Why did King Sitara fight for the people of India? Can you imagine their situation? 2. What does the king's adventure teach us? 3. What would you have done if you were in the position of Alluri Sitharaman? 4. Why is it important for us to learn about the struggles for independence? 5. What do you do when you see an injustice happening in society? Your donations are appreciated.

On April 30, 2025, the Supreme Court of India issued a landmark judgment that said unauthorized constructions cannot be legitimized merely due to administrative delays, passage of time, or monetary investments, and issued a slew of directions to curb illegal constructions.  The essence of the judgment is that you cannot legalize the illegal structures. Any leniency shown toward the people who flouted the law, who snubbed the law of the land, and who insulted the legal system should pay dearly and should be punished, and their unauthorised construction must be demolished. Authorities should investigate all the structures in their purview for their legitimacy and demolish all unauthorised structures. All the village Panchayats, Urban areas, and cities should start the investigation immediately to find out if structures are built without permission as per law. A bench consisting of Justices J B Pardiwala and R Mahadevan said the law ought not to rescue those flouting its rigours because allowing it might result in "flourishing the culture of impunity." A case was filed in the Supreme Court challenging the order of the Calcutta High Court dealing with a petition highlighting the unauthorized constructions. The High Court issued a judgment to initiate the demolition proceedings at premises where the illegal constructions came up on some floors. The counsel appearing for the petitioners urged the top court that her client should be given a chance to pray for the regularisation of the unauthorised construction.  This judgment is in response to the case filed by Kaniz Ahmed, who built a two-story unauthorised building in Kolkata. He wanted to get the regularization of this unauthorized building on payment of the impact fee. Failing to receive the permit from the High Court, he went to the Supreme Court.  The highlights of the judgment are as follows: “We are of the opinion that construction(s) put up in violation of or deviation from the building plan approved by the local authority and the constructions which are audaciously put up without any building planning approval, cannot be encouraged. Each and every construction must be made scrupulously following and strictly adhering to the rules," it said "We must adopt a strict approach while dealing with cases of illegal construction and should not readily entertain regularisation of buildings erected without requisite permission from the competent authority. The need for maintaining such a firm stance emanates not only from inviolable duty cast upon the Courts to uphold the rule of law, rather such judicial restraint gains more force in order to facilitate the well-being of all concerned.”, the court added. "The need for maintaining such a firm stance arises not only from the inviolable duty cast upon the courts to uphold the rule of law, but also from the necessity to protect the well-being of the public," the court noted in its order. "We are at pains to observe that the aforesaid aspect has not been kept in mind by many state governments while enacting Regularisation of Unauthorised Development Act based on payment of impact fees." "Unauthorised constructions, apart from posing a threat to the life of the occupants and the citizens living nearby, also have an effect on resources like electricity, groundwater and access to roads, which are primarily designed to be made available in orderly development and authorised activities,” it said. “A person who has no regards for the law cannot be permitted to pray for regularisation after putting up unauthorised construction of two floors. This has something to do with the rule of law. Unauthorised construction has to be demolished.” "There is no way out. Judicial discretion would be guided by expediency. Courts are not free from statutory fetters. Justice is to be rendered in accordance with law," it said. "In the event of any violation, being brought to the notice of the courts, the same should be dealt with iron hands and any leniency or mercy shown to the person guilty of unauthorised construction would amount to showing misplaced sympathy," the bench added. "If any deviation is noticed, action must be taken in accordance with the Act and the process of issuance of completion/occupation certificate should be deferred, unless and until the deviations pointed out are completely rectified,” it added. "Even after issuance of completion certificate, deviation/violation if any contrary to the planning permission brought to the notice of the authority immediate steps be taken by the said authority concerned, in accordance with law, against the builder/owner/occupant,” it said. “The law ought not to come to rescue of those who flout its rigours as allowing the same might result in flourishing the culture of impunity. Put otherwise, if the law were to protect the ones who endeavour to disregard it, the same would lead to undermine the deterrent effect of laws, which is the cornerstone of a just and orderly society”, the Court observed. This judgment will put an end to the construction of building without proper authorization from the authorities, there are several G. O’s requiring the permissions to build Churches from the Collector’s office, Municipal corporations, Panchayats, Mandal Officers and so on.  The government is failing in its responsibility to enforce the law and take appropriate action to demolish the unauthorised structures. The Supreme Court opined that no leniency should be shown towards illegal and unauthorised construction, stating unequivocally that such structures must be demolished.
