#RamNavami & #HanumanJayanthi have not been so common in West Bengal. But from last 5 years, some unknown org are putting in applications for permission. Will consider applications only from those who are applying from last 5 years.

-West Bengal Govt in Calcutta High Court

6/9
Looking at the magnitude of the crowd that will assemble, I don't think @WBPolice will be adequate. The state can seek assistance from Paramilitary forces. It is to assist the state machinery.

- Calcutta High Court

7/9
West Bengal has imposed 27 conditions on those seeking to carry out processions.
State will allow tableau for #HanumanJayanthi procession.

Those seeking permission will be responsible for breach of conditions.

2000+ applications.

- West Bengal Govt to Calcutta High Court

8/9
A lot of these started coming up recently like in 5 years. But once it has come to the state, it has come to the state.
-Calcutta High Court

Also suggested:
-Barricade the routes
-Police can take out peace marches
-Designate short routes
- Take assistance of central forces

Over 2 Lakh students in schools run by MCD doesn’t have Books to read.

Delhi High Court shocked to see Delhi govt being ignorant about students not going to school or having textbooks.

“You are putting children as a trading point, they are not a trading commodity for us."

1/9 Image
Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj through govt lawyer submitted:

- Standing Committee of MCD in not there.

- Delegating more powers to an appropriate authority would require the consent of the Chief Minister.

- Chief Minister @ArvindKejriwal is presently in custody.

Delhi High Court:
Because there is a vaccum does not mean students can be allowed to study without textbooks.

Delhi High Court further said:
@Saurabh_MLAgk had turned a blind eye to the plight of students and is shedding crocodile tears.

1951: Congress under Nehru boycotted Somnath Mandir.

2024: Congress under Nehru family boycotted #AyodhyaRamMandir.

#AntiHinduCongress

1/5 Image
First President of 🇮🇳 Dr Rajendra Prasad was invited for the inauguration of #SomnathMandir.

Jawahar Lal Nehru as Prime Minister of 🇮🇳 asked him not to go to Gujarat in strong words.

#AntiHinduCongress was against the idea of Hindu revival.

2/5 Image
To, Dr Rajendra Prasad-
“I confess- I don’t like idea of your association with a spectacular opening of the #SomnathMandir. This is not merely visiting a temple, which can certainly be done by u but participating in significant function which unfortunately has implications.”

There are few who claims-
- BJP has nothing to do with #RamMandirAyodhya
- Mandir has come after Supreme Court judgment.

My take:
Those people don’t know how court functions.

REALITY:

Issue came to Supreme Court.

CJI led 5-Judge constitutional bench was formed for it.

1/5 Image
Congress’ @KapilSibal wanted Supreme Court to adjourn the matter of #RamMandirAyodhya to a later dated and not hear it.

But govt of @narendramodi took a firm stand in SC that hearing must commence & be completed as per provisions.

Also assured against any mishap in 🇮🇳

2/5 Image
As per Article 348(1) of Indian Constitution, language of Supreme Court is English.

1.5+ Lakhs docs needed for hearing of #RamMandirCase.

They were in languages including Sanskrit, Hindi, Awadhi, Pali & certain foreign languages.

Translating them to English required time.
