After Bengaluru, Karnataka HC allows Ganesh Festival celebrations at Eidgah Ground in Hubballi
Decision came despite SC’s restrain on Ganesh Festival celebrations at B’luru Idgah Maidan
Bengaluru: In a late evening hearing at the chamber of one of the justices of the Karnataka High Court, the court on Tuesday permitted the celebration of the Ganesh Festival at the Eidgah Ground in Hubballi here in the state.
The matter came up in the High Court earlier today, but the court had allowed the celebrations. Following the Supreme Court’s order of status quo in a similar matter of Idgah Maidan in Bengaluru, the Waqf Board challenged the decision of the HC.
Justice Ashok S Kinagi who heard the matter allowed the celebrations of the Ganesh Festival to be held at the Eidgah Maidan in Hubballi.
