Dear members,
I am from Andhra Pradesh.Our great grand father build a temple near to our house.For the last more than eighty years our great grand father worshipped our Family God in that Temple and after my great grand father my grand father worshipped the God and after my grand father my father and I worshipping the God in that temple which is build by our great grand father.For the last one year not only our family members but also others also worshipping the God in our temple.
We allowed others to worship in our temple.The problem is that without our permission others are now doing alterations in our temple without our permission.Now even they are demanding to hand over the temple keys. The land documents is in the name of my father.What should we do to protect our rights on our temple and to have a authority on the temple.
Shall we create a Trust or Society in the name of temple???
Please give advice??
Thankyou all,
Yours truly,
Kumar.

Yes, form a religious trust asap to manage it properly.
Else apply for appointment of Receiver through court to manage it.

Creation of religious trust is the better solution. They might be doing the repair work and demanding the keys as a matter of service. When they have not disputed your ownership, why to rush to court for appointment of receiver. If you create a trust, you and your legal heirs will have perpetual ownership, you being the managing trustee and at the same time religious activities will be improved by participation of others in the affairs of the temple.

Since immovable property is there, Public Trust.

It can be a religious private trust since the temple belongs to private persons.
