Devaswom boards, trusts running temples considering appeal against high court ban on fireworks in religious places: Kerala government

The Kerala government is considering appealing against a High Court order banning fireworks in religious places at odd hours. Minister K Radhakrishnan stated that it would be difficult to conduct festivals in temples and religious places without fireworks. The High Court had ruled that there are no religious commandments mandating the use of fireworks to please God. The court also directed police chiefs to seize illegally stored crackers and warned that violation of the order would result in contempt proceedings.
