Phones and cameras are strictly prohibited inside the temple, considered one of the holiest in the state. The Minister’s tweet did not go unnoticed. The Lingaraj Temple Administration told the regional television channel Odisha TV (OTV), it would investigate how these pictures were allowed to be taken. In the meanwhile it wanted for the tweet to be deleted from Twitter.
In another tweet on Monday, Goel regretted his tweet, “Yesterday on the occasion of #UtkalaDibasa, I had by mistake tweeted pictures of the Lingaraja Temple from my trip last year. I did not wish to hurt anyone's sentiments and therefore, I am withdrawing the tweet/images.”
