New Delhi: The Supreme Court has rejected petitions seeking to block the Global (Agola Ayyappa Sangamam) Ayyappa Summit. The pleas were filed by V.C. Ajikumar, Ajeesh Gopi and Dr. P.S. Mahendrakumar, but the bench comprising Justices P.S. Narasimha and A.S. Chandurkar ruled that there was no reason to interfere with the High Court’s earlier order permitting the event.
The court directed that the restrictions imposed by the High Court must be followed and clarified that the Travancore Devaswom Board would be responsible for ensuring compliance. It also stated that any grievances arising from the event could be addressed before the High Court.
