For the first time after nearly three months, the two Shankaracharyas of the Kanchi Mutt, Jayendra Saraswati and Vijayendra Saraswati, were seen together on Wednesday in Kanchipuram.

The senior seer was arrested on Nov 11 and later released on bail on Jan 11, the day the junior seer was arrested in the case.
