Swami Avimukteshwaranand Saraswati, the Shankaracharya of the Jyotish Peeth in Uttarakhand, met Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Uddhav Thackeray on Monday, expressing sympathy for Thackeray's betrayal and suggesting that Maharashtra's pain will persist until he becomes chief minister again. The seer criticized the betrayal as a sin and questioned the recent foundation stone laying of a Kedarnath temple in Delhi by Uttarakhand's chief minister.
