So there is no more relationship with the AIADMK,&#8221; Singh told a press conference in Ranchi on Saturday. Demanding immediate intervention of the Manmohan Singh government in the Sankaracharya issue, Singh sought the government to understand social sentiments attached with the Sankaracharya. &#8220;As there is nothing mentioned in the constitution for taking permission from an appropriate authority before arresting any religious leader, such process against any religious leader should be handled with care.&#8221; <BR><br \/>\n<BR><br \/>\nDenouncing the seer&#8217;s police remand in connection with a murder case of a former mutt official, the former Uttar Pradesh chief minister said it would have been better had the state government opted for house arrest or kept the Sankaracharya in a guest house. &#8220;The accused who don&#8217;t cooperate in a case are normally sent to police remand, but it was not the case with the Sankaracharya,&#8221; he said, expressing fear of police overbearing against the religious leader.<BR><br \/>\n<\/P> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SourceRANCHI, INDIA, November 20, 2004: The BJP&#8217;s alliance with the AIADMK stands cut off following the way the Jayalalitha government,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4801","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4801","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4801"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4801\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4801"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4801"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hinduismtoday.com\/hpi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4801"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
