“Lingayat organisations should be free from politics. Community leaders should avoid politicians while building community organisations,’’ Sri Tontada Siddarama Swami of Yedeyur Math said in Belagavi on Monday.
“It has become a trend where community organisations are being built around politicians. That should stop. We should avoid politicians while building community organisations. Our organisations should be free from party politics,’’ he said.
He was speaking at the Basava Darshana Pravachana Mangala organised by Jagatika Lingayat Mahasabha and Rashtriya Basava Sene.
