On the road in
People posing as priests or guides
On Mandir Marg outside the temple, a person dressed as a holy man may put a red tilak on a visitor or tie a thread on the wrist without being asked, then demand money for the blessing.
What to do. Do not accept unsolicited tilak, threads or blessings from people on the road. Walk to the temple gates yourself; the shrine’s own site says entry is free and open to all.
