The trust managing Jain temples of Palitana have decided to implement a strict dress code for visitors. Starting in January 2013, people visiting the main Adeshwar Bhagwan temple top of the Shatrunjay hill, WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO ENTER THE SACRED LOCATION WEARING JEANS, SHORTS, SKIRTS, OR ANY OTHER OUTFIT that the trust managers deem "indecent." Anandji Kalyanji Trust, which manages close to 850 temples, say that the decision has been taken in wake of large influx of tourists, besides the regular devotees who visit Palitana for eight months in a year. Close to 1,000,000 people visit Palitana every year, besides the roughly 10,000 foreign tourists.

NEW DRESS CODE REQUIREMENTS
The trust will provide dresses to the tourists and pilgrims, who are seen wearing objectionable clothes. Men will be given lahenga and kafni, while women will be provided with salwar-kameez.
The Anandiji Kayanji Trust representatives stated that construction has started of separate changing rooms for men and women at Sagalpoint on the Shatrunjay hill. The trust will also ban the use of mobiles in the temple and the phones will have to be deposited at a specific location. A team of trust volunteers will ensure the enforcement of this dress code.
For more information contact the Anandiji Kayanji Trust.
