The Shri Shri Govindaji Temple (Second Amendment) Act, 2000
The Shri Shri Govindaji Temple (Second Amendment) Act, 2000
This legislation amends the governance of the historic Shri Shri Govindaji Temple in Manipur, India. It applies directly to the temple's administrative board and the Manipur state government, which oversees its management. The Act makes two key modifications: it officially updates the temple's name in all legal contexts to the more respectful title Shri Shri Govindaji, and it expands the governing committee from nine to twelve state-appointed members. This matters because it enhances the administrative capacity of the board to manage the temple's daily operations and affairs, while ensuring the sacred site's official title aligns with traditional religious honorifics.
