The Hindu
PIL claims that government failed to stop rally even though new guidelines issued in the light of an increase in COVID-19 cases prohibit such activities
The High Court of Karnataka questioned whether the State Government and its authorities were ‘helpless and totally incompetent’ to stop padayatra by Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) on Mekedatu project when no permission was granted and the guidelines on COVID-19 prohibit such rallies and gatherings.
The court directed the government to explain how it allowed the padayatra to take place and why appropriate action was not taken by the authorities to restrain the KPCC from carrying out the padayatra when the guidelines, issued in view of an increase in the number of COVID-19 cases, prohibit such activities.
