The Kedarnath Dham Delhi Trust announced the cancellation of plans to construct a replica of the Kedarnath Temple in Delhi's Burari due to widespread controversy and objections regarding disrespect to the original temple in Uttarakhand. President Suman Mittal stated that the decision was made to avoid offending religious sentiments, especially after the foundation stone was laid by Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami. The Trust has ceased accepting donations for the project and will change the temple's name to further address concerns. Opposition from temple priests, who emphasized the temple’s sacred significance as one of the 12 'Jyotirlingas', contributed to the decision. Additionally, a protest march organized by the Congress party against the construction was disrupted by severe weather conditions. The situation highlights ongoing tensions surrounding religious sentiments and cultural heritage in India.
