Shankaracharya Swami Avimukteshwaranand Saraswati of Jyotish Peeth said on Sunday that the failure of the role and governance is clearly visible.
“Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath was given 40 days to establish himself as a true Hindu or avoid being portrayed as a fake Hindu. Thirty days of this period has passed. No significant improvement has been made in these days. If there is no improvement in the remaining days, the clarion call for the “Cow Prestigious War” will be sounded from March 7,” he announced.
He said his foreign trip cannot be an excuse for his laxity. We had made two main demands — declaring the cow as the mother of the state and imposing a complete ban on beef exports from Uttar Pradesh. Furthermore, the silence of his government, the ruling party, and responsible leaders on the “Five-Point Demand Letter” that supports the prevention of cow slaughter seems to reinforce his anti-cow-worshipping mentality.
Shankaracharya clarified that this “Go Pratishtha Dharma Yudh” (Cow Protection War) will be completely non-violent and ideological. Our weapon is “Scripture and Dialogue,” not violence. To remind the government of its moral and constitutional responsibility, we will depart for Lucknow on March 7 through a peaceful “Go Pratishtha Dharma Yudh Shankhnaad Yatra.”
If a decision is not reached within the next 9-10 days, the entire responsibility will rest with Yogi Adityanath, the state government, the relevant political parties, and their leadership.
On March 6, Chaitra Krishna Tritiya, as Sankalp Diwas, a resolution will be taken at Shankaracharya Ghat in Kashi on the occasion of the birth anniversary of Veer Shivaji Maharaj, the “Cow-Brahmin Protector.” The resolution will be taken by worshipping Mother Ganga and taking an ideological pledge for the Go Pratishtha Dharma Yudh (Cow Protection War) Shankhnaad.
Departure from Shri Vidya Math on March 7 at 8:30 am. The journey will begin with the recitation of Sankatmochan Hanumanashtak, Hanuman Chalisa, and Bajrang Baan at the famous Sankatmochan Temple in Kashi, along with prayers for the removal of obstacles.
After this, via Jaunpur (Meeting), Sultanpur (Meeting), a meeting and overnight stay in Rae Bareli.
On March 8, from Rae Bareli, via Mohanlalganj (Meeting), Lalganj (Meeting), Achalganj (Meeting), a meeting and overnight stay in Unnao.
On March 9, via Unnao, Bangarmau (Meeting), Baghauli (Meeting), a meeting and overnight stay in Naimisharanya.
On March 10, from Naimisharanya, via Sidhauli (Meeting), Itaunja (Meeting), entry into the Lucknow border and overnight stay. Wherever Shankaracharya Avimukteshwarananda Saraswati stops, he will interact with the people through meetings.
The final Shankhnaad program will be held on March 11th (Sheetla Ashtami) at the Kanshiram Smriti Cultural Site, Pasi Kila Square, Aashiyana, Lucknow, from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM.
The main attractions of the program will be Mangalacharan, cow dung Ganesh worship, cow flag consecration, and the opportunity to experience the eloquence of scholars, saints, and cow devotees, including the “Dharma Yudh Shankhnaad.”
Shankaracharya said that the indifference of the government is testing the patience of cow devotees. His arrival in Lucknow on March 11th will serve as the government’s final warning.
