MADIKERI, KARNATAKA, INDIA, June 28, 2012 (Deccan Herald) Next time you visit Bhagamandala or Talacauvery temples (ttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bhagamandala), make sure you are clad in traditional or decent attire. The members of the Talacauvery-Bhagandeeshwara Temple Management Committee along with local residents have decided to impose a dress code on tourists and devotees. It was decided that antics of tourists needed to be curbed as Bhagamandala and Talacauvery were places of worship and not picnic spots. The members urged that the dress code prevalent elsewhere in the Hindu pilgrim centres should be enforced at the twin places to preserve the sanctity. It was decided that devotees, especially women wearing jeans, T-shirts, sleeveless, skirts and other revealing dresses would be stopped at the entrance of the temples. Women clad in saree, chudidar, salwar kameez will be allowed inside.
