Why is there a proposal to ban non-Hindus from entering Badrinath, Kedarnath temples

A proposal to ban non-Hindus from entering Badrinath, Kedarnath, and Gangotri temples is expected to be approved this week. Temple committees, citing religious management rights and the sanctity of these sites, have reached a consensus. This move follows a similar declaration by the Gangotri Temple Committee and a demand from the Ganga Sabha in Haridwar.
