Mumbai, July 24: After the Elphinstone슬롯 머신 사이트 추천railway station, one of the prominent stations on the Western line was renamed as Prabhadevi recently, demands to rename other railway stations of Mumbai are also increasing. According to a news report in the슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Times of India, the슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Shanmukhananda Sabha, one of the renowned temple trust in Mumbai, has suggested renaming Kings Circle Railway Station as Shanmukha Rail Nilayam. Besides this, another temple trust has also been pressing for renaming슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Matunga as Marubai슬롯 머신 사이트 추천after the gaondevi(village goddess).

The report further mentions that the temple authority has written a letter to the railway minister with the same demand. The trust's president V Shankar was quoted in the report as saying, "Our demand conforms with the BJP government policy to replace British names of locations and landmarks with Indian ones.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Shanmukhananda Sabha is슬롯 머신 사이트 추천a 66 years old institution that has been serving Mumbai through classical music. Along with renaming슬롯 머신 사이트 추천proposal, we have also offered to turn the railway station into India's first theme-based railway station. We will install music슬롯 머신 사이트 추천kiosks that give the feel of a live concert, craft musical murals and tableaux depicting various Indian슬롯 머신 사이트 추천instruments."

The constituency MP Rahul Shewale from Shiv Sena, on the contrary, has demanded슬롯 머신 사이트 추천renaming Kings Circle railway station as Parshwa Dham due to the vast population of Jain community residing there. The Shanmukhananda슬롯 머신 사이트 추천association ridiculed the demand and stated the area is dominated by the South Indian community; so their demand should be given priority. MP Shewale, over his demand to name the station as슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Parshwa Dham, was quoted as saying,"For two years, I have been receiving presentations from the Jain community to name Kings Circle station after the first Tirthankar, Parshvanath.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천There are many Jain colonies in King's Circle-Sion and the maximum number of derasars(Jain temple)are located here. I did not receive any demand from the슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Shanmukhananda. So I took only the Jain appeal to the parliament."

Similarly, the Marubai슬롯 머신 사이트 추천temple trust also wants to rename Matunga railway station after its deity. They have been quoted as saying, "The place where슬롯 머신 사이트 추천the temple has been built originally belonged to the temple. The Britishers슬롯 머신 사이트 추천took the place for developmental work. We seek to rename the station for the benefits of Mumbaikars."
