    Is this Swetambara Jaina sect? It certainly does look Gujarati.

    Dear Sir
    You have been misguided.
    You have to know actually who is behind this making of the temples. The land to belongs to Mafatlal Metha and it has been given to people to manage and it is only seen how mismanaged it is.
    I am today at the temple and the visitors are not getting food and not even drinking water, no sign board for toilets, rooms alloted are asked to be shared with strangers and many problems.
    Finally, it is in the wrong hands

    Mismanagement was evident in our visit. People left temple before their scheduled check out due to poor all round services.
