The Maharashtra Mandir Mahasangh will launch a statewide agitation on Sunday, demanding the withdrawal of the proposed State Devasthan Inam Abolition Draft Act, 2026, claiming it targets properties of Hindu temples while excluding Waqf land from its purview.
The draft statute aims to grant ownership rights to tenants and occupants of lands historically owned by temple trusts. It proposes resolving pending disputes and unlocking 400,000 hectares of land. However, it is facing stiff opposition from Hindu organisations.
