Rajasingham Jeyadevan popularly known as 'Undiyalaan' has been at odds with several Tamil and English language media networks including Tamileditors.com over reports regarding the missing millions from Eelapatheeswarar Hindu temple where Jeyadevan was once chairman.
Tamileditors.com would like to clarify some issues with Mr. Jeyadevan, and stick to the norms of journalistic ethics by providing a forum for Mr. Jeyadevan to put forward his side of the story.
To help Mr Jeyadevan do this, we have produced a set of questions for him. If he could spare a few minutes to answer them, we would be all too happy to publish answers.
1. What was the purpose of setting up this temple and how did Jeyadevan and Co raise the funds for the initial set-up?
2. The relationship of some of the people involved in the affairs has been explicitly written in the articles (especially in the articles written by Jeyaraj). What are the relationships between the current directors?
3. We learn that 3 out of the 4 directors of the Temple are closely related. So is the temple a family owned establishment?
4. UK Company House lists the temple as a profit making company (not even a company limited by guarantee). Would it be profit making venture?
5. If the temple is a profit making company, would it be appropriate to call the directors as trustees?
6. In the year 2000, the charity commission conducted an enquiry about the financial handlings of the temple and recommended that the temple cannot be considered as a charitable organization. One of the reasons given by it was that there were donations to local political parties from the income of the temple. Which are these political parties? How much money has been donated? Were the devotees informed about these donations?
As many people may already be aware, Undiyalaan has in recent months been very busy trying to label a number of media networks as proxies of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), and accuse prominent journalists of being members of the LTTE.
We suggest that Undiyalaan stops spreading malicious rumors, and attempts to clear his name with the Tamil community who have contributed wholeheartedly to the above mentioned temple unidiyal-money box.
