The Supreme Court on Monday said police and State authorities were not bound to act on any “oral orders” to ban the live telecast of pran pratishta of Lord Ram at Ayodhya and conduct of poojas, archanas and other programmes linked to the event on January 22.
“Nobody is bound to act on oral orders. Whatever is permitted in law should be allowed. Nobody can be stopped on the basis of oral orders,” a Bench of Justices Sanjiv Khanna and Dipankar Datta ordered.
