The Madras High Court allowed a petition that asked for permission to conduct an awareness campaign in and around Madurai for the construction of 'Sri Rama Temple in Ayodhya'. The Bench of Justice R. Hemalatha directed the Commissioner of Police, to consider the representation of the petitioner and pass the required orders with certain COVID-19 safety restrictions for the free movement of the vehicle in and around Madurai.
The Court opined that “Shri Rama” is very close to the heart of the religious sentiments of Hindus and when people were being allowed entry into movie halls, malls and other public places taking the desired safety measures like wearing masks and using hands sanitizer, there seems no valid reason to deny permission.
