Panvel (Maharashtra): Tiles with coloured pictures of Hindu deities and saints were fitted on the walls in staircase of ‘the Karnala Sahakari Bank’ near Tapal Naka. After members of Hindu Janajagruti Samiti (HJS) created awareness about denigration of Deities and Saints taking place in this manner, the tiles have been removed by the bank.
