PM unhappy over temple in his name
In a series of tweets, Modi said: "Have seen the news about a Temple being built in my name. I was appalled. This is shocking & against India's great traditions."
"Building such Temples is not what our culture teaches us. Personally, it made me very sad. Would urge those doing it not to do it," he said.
The Prime Minister said: "If you have time & resources, please devote the same towards fulfilling our dream of a Clean India."
According to reports, the temple has been built in Kotharia village near Gujarat's Rajkot city.
Modi had served as the Chief Minister of Gujarat before winning the Lok Sabha polls last year.
