Ujjain: Mahakal Lok located in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh is the center of faith of crores of devotees from the country and the world. After several statues were damaged due to thunderstorm and rain on Sunday in Mahakal Lok, built at a cost of Rs 750 crore six months ago, the Shivraj government is now badly surrounded by corruption charges. In the storm and rain on Sunday, trees were uprooted at many 60 places in Ujjain, and some houses were also reported to have collapsed, as well as 2 people died. However, most of the politics is happening around Mahakal Lok and the state government is on the back foot.  

Let us tell you that, the Mahakal Lok, prepared at a cost of crores, was inaugurated by PM Narendra Modi himself on October 11, 2022 in a grand program. Along with the construction of Mahakal Lok, there were also allegations of corruption in it. Questions were also raised about the religious significance along with the quality of the statues made of red stone and rainforce plastic. Questions were raised that plastic idols are not installed at Hindu religious places. Therefore, only metal statues or stone statues should have been installed in Mahakal Lok. Even after this, statues made of rainforce plastic were installed in Mahakal Lok and now the storm, which has run at a speed of just 30 km, has surrounded the state government with corruption charges.  

बाबा महाकाल का रोष देखिये,
— हल्की सी हवा में ही किस तरह धातुओं की बनी मूर्तियाँ गिरने लगी है।

शिवराज जी,
आपके पापों पर अब बाबा महाकाल ने भी त्रिनेत्र खोल लिया है। मध्यप्रदेश को अब और अधिक नहीं बिकने देंगे।
