Yogi Adityanath Defends Kanwar Yatra Nameplate Directive as SC Extends Stay
Jul 26, 2024, 09:22 AM
The Uttar Pradesh government, led by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, has defended its directive requiring eateries along the Kanwar Yatra route to display the names of their owners and staff. The directive, aimed at ensuring peace, transparency, and avoiding potential confusion among Kanwariyas, has faced opposition and legal challenges. The Supreme Court has extended its stay on the order, stating that shopkeepers could voluntarily display names but cannot be forced to do so. The UP government argued that the measure aligns with the Constitution's fundamental duties and aims to prevent religious sentiments from being hurt. The Supreme Court has sought responses from three states regarding the directive, which is currently issued as an advisory.
