Additionally, In January 2018, Government of Madhya Pradesh and the management committee of Mahakaleshwar Jyotirlinga organized a congregation of priests from all the 12 Jyotirlingas where the priests from Shri Vaijnath Temple was invited. The priest community of Deoghar took strong exception to this move and registered their protest with the Government of Madhya Pradesh and the management committee of Mahakaleshwar Jyotirlinga.[9][10]
