SC upholds HC order banning animal sacrifice on TN hilltop
The Supreme Court has upheld a Madras High Court order that prohibits animal sacrifice and limits Muslim devotees' prayer rights on Thiruparankundram hills. The apex court found the High Court's decision to be balanced, refusing to interfere with the prohibition of animal sacrifice and non-vegetarian food in the Nellithoppu area until a civil court decides on the customary practice.
