Taking note of a social media furore over the alleged entry of woman in the banned age group at Sabarimala along with actor Chrianjeevi a few days ago, the Travancore Devaswom Board (TDB) on Wednesday warned legal action against the smear campaign.
According to K. Ananthagopan, TDB president, a verification of the woman’s age proof documents clearly showed that she was born in 1966 and hence had no restrictions in visiting the hill shrine.
“The woman climbed up the hill after a due verification of her Aadhar card and other documents by the police and she is learnt to have visited the temple in the previous years as well,” he told mediapersons.
