Munneswaran Kovil cancels animal sacrifice

Munneswaran Kovil - Animal Sacrifice

The Chief Priest at the Munneswaran Bhadrakali Kovil today announced that the annual animal sacrifice will not take place as scheduled following a request made by President Mahinda Rajapaksa to refrain from such act during the exposition of the sacred Kapilawasthu relics.

President Rajapaksa early today requested all religious authorities to refrain from making animal sacrifices during the period the sacred Kapilawasthu relics are on exposition.
