New Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Monday dismissed a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) seeking direction to the authorities to prohibit the affixation of images of the deities on the walls for the prevention of open public urination or spitting on the sacred images or littering garbage around it.
The Division Bench headed by Chief Justice of Delhi Satish Chander Sharma also comprising Justice Subramonium on Monday dismissed the plea. According to the petition, people are using pictures of deities in various places to stop public urination. However, these measures are leading to harming the religious sentiments of people at large.
