What a waste

Just saw in the news that Amitabh Bahchchan plans to denote 9.5 (I think more than 2 million dollars) crores worth of diamonds to a Balaji temple. He probably wants to cover the hands of the idol with diamonds. What a waste of good money. So much good can be done with this much money. I know, it’s his money and he can do whatever he feels like, but people like him are in a position when they can set an example. What would the lord do with such an extravagance? Lord Balaji can have all the diamonds in the universe if He wants them. Stupid, I say.

He can get a school built with this much money, or a shelter for the poor. Or for that matter, he can start a fund for scholarly students in need of money.
