Women not allowed to enter
The Times of India, July 24, 2011
Temples have often played the gender card too. Women don’t visit Pune’s Kartikswami Temple on top of Parvati Hill as it’s believed they will lose their husbands if they do so. Sudhakar Goti, chief of Parvati temple, says, “Visiting Kartikswami Temple is discouraged only among Maharashtrians. The same god brings good fortune in south India.”
