SC Dismisses Plea Seeking Permission To Hold Muharram Processions

The Supreme Court has dismissed a petition seeking permission to hold Muharram processions across the country and has asked the petitioner to approach the Allahabad High Court with the plea, reports PTI. The three-judge bench headed by Chief Justice SA Bobde said, "You are asking for a general order and then if we allow this there will be chaos. Particular community will be targetted for spreading Covid. We don't want that. We as a court cannot risk the health of all the people."
