Madras HC allows immersion of Lord Vinayaka idols by devotees

Op India  

In a positive development, the Madras High Court has reportedly allowed the installation of idols of Lord Vinayaka outside the homes of devotees as well as immersion of the idols in water bodies. The ruling has come in response to pleas that challenged the order of the Tamil Nadu government banning people from installing idols at public places or taking out processions.

The High Court strongly objected to the arguments made by the State and directed that individuals must be allowed to immerse idols in water bodies.
