Gods wait in Telangana temples, as priests demand pay parity before puja

Stopping prayers to God to get prayers heard by powers that be, is what priests in temples across Telangana are doing. All in hope that the political almighty hears their prayers for a pay hike. Across Telangana the temples are partially closed and prayers also going on accordingly and the reason for this is 6000 archakas across the state are demanding a pay hike on par with the Government employees.
