The Congress-led Karnataka government had issued an order to limit the RSS procession scheduled in Chittapur, citing law and order concerns. However, the matter was challenged in court, and the High Court has now granted an interim stay on the government’s order.
The bench of Justice M. Nagaprasanna observed that the restrictions could not be implemented until further hearings. The RSS procession, which has been a point of contention between the state government and the organisation, will proceed under the court’s supervision until a final verdict is issued. Officials from both sides are expected to present their arguments in the coming hearings. This ruling is seen as a temporary setback for the Congress administration, which had sought to impose curbs on the event.
