The BJP's top leader in Kerala has been caught on camera allegedly boasting about the Sabarimala temple protests and how a priest consulted him on keeping women below 50 out of the shrine even if it meant defying the Supreme Court. In the video leaked to the media, Kerala BJP president Sreedharan Pillai is heard telling party workers that the Sabarimala Tanthri or head priest called him and was worried about contempt of court if he closed down the shrine to block women. The video surfaced just before the temple opened on Monday under heavy security that included thousands of commandos and a contingent of policewomen above 50.
