Adding that the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi had given Rs 250 million for Hindus living in the country and abroad to get cheap accommodation and food facilities when they come to worship in Pashupatinath, Minster Ale said that he could not give Pashupati's Dharamshala to the Batas group at a low price.
