No wonder so many super-religious Jains are desperately trying to gobble 100-acres property located next-door to establish Milkiway Galaxy's biggest, grandest and most expensive Jain temple made exclusively with most exclusive Marbles ported from Mars and Uranus.

Jain sadhvi complain molestation in Palitana
http://www.digambarjainonline.com/news/news1e.htm

BHAVNAGAR, February 19, 2008: A Jain sadhvi's alleged molestation outside a dharamsala in the pilgrim town of Palitana has outraged the region's Jain community. In a complaint registered on Monday, the 27-year-old sadhvi told the police that a man attacked her on February 9, when she had gone into the open field behind the dharamsala to attend to the nature's call.

As the community threatened a major agitation, the police held an identification parade on Monday, in which the sadhvi identified a balloon-seller, Laxman Bhara, who lives near the dharamsala , as the culprit. Bhara was immediately arrested.

Maharaj Revant Vijay of the Palitana Jain temple has demanded stern action against the accused. The community's religious heads are planning a protest rally.
