The State Cabinet on Friday accepted its sub-committee’s report on religious practices at the Datta Peeta, a syncretic shrine at Bababudangiri in Chikkamagaluru district. This will be submitted to the High Court of Karnataka.
A Cabinet sub-committee headed by Law and Parliamentary Affairs Minister J.C. Madhuswamy prepared the report.
In 2021, the High Court directed the State government to submit a report on conduct of religious practices at the syncretic shrine at Bababudangiri. The Karnataka High Court, in 2021, issued an order directing the State government to appoint a Hindu priest to Datta Peeta.
