Raj: why we are before you? for 75 years, the interpretation given for the religious denomination-rights of majority of hindus, I say so coming from Tamil Nadu and Kerala, 95% don't belong to any denomination which is so-called approved by this court, where do we go?

J Nagarathna: temples follow Shivaite, Vaishnavite worship, and that is why they are called denominations. Now, in a Shivaite type of worship, Vaishnavite can't say we would like a Vaishnavite form of worship. there is a difference. Therefore, that form of worship is protected. that has nothing to do with organisation; that is not necessary. A Hindu is a hindu and he can go to any temple.
