Inspecting Sri Subramania Swamy temple in Kumara Vayalur here, the minister said the department would take a neutral decision on the entry of the people from other religions into temples.

“The issue of Kalaimamani recipient Zakir Hussain stopped at Srirangam temple is being probed and a police complaint against the accused has been lodged by the HR&CE officials,” Sekar Babu said.
