Dress code in Shimla’s Jain temple: No entry for those wearing mini skirts, half pants, bermudas, frocks; decision to save culture

Board outside Jain temple of Shimla

Dress code is already in force in some temples of the country. Now it has been made mandatory even in the Jain temple of Shimla. The Digambar Jain Sabha made it clear by placing a board outside the temple located in Middle Bazar that those wearing mini skirts, half pants, torn jeans, night suits, three quarter jeans and frocks will not be allowed to enter the temple.

After this decision of the Jain Sabha, those who come to the temple wearing unlimited clothes, they will have to have darshan from a distance. Entry inside the temple will be prohibited for such people. Digambar Jain Sabha has put up a board related to this at the entrance of the hall temple.

According to temple priest Sanjay Jain, people are forgetting their dignity. The custom of keeping chunni on the head of women is over. Most people come to the temple wearing unlimited clothes. Seeing the devotion of tourists coming from far away, darshan will be done from the entrance of the temple itself.

Tourists coming from all over the world have to keep this in mind

Shimla is a world famous tourist destination. In such a situation, tourists come here from all over the country and the world. Therefore, after this decision of the Digambar Jain Sabha, the people coming to the temple for darshan will have to take care of it.

Dress code in some temples of these states too

Earlier, dress code is applicable in many temples of Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand. Last week, the dress code was also implemented in the Ashoknagar temple of Madhya Pradesh. There was a discussion about this in the country. Now the Jain temple of Shimla has also implemented it.
