Despite HC order, women denied Shani temple entry
A day after Bombay High Court held that entry to temples was a fundamental right of women, scores of women activists on Saturday made a bid to storm the inner sanctum of Shani Shinganapur temple in Maharashtra to break the ban but they were stopped by scores of villagers.
​Ahmednagar: A day after Bombay High Court held that entry to temples was a fundamental right of women, scores of women activists on Saturday made a bid to storm the inner sanctum of Shani Shinganapur temple in Maharashtra to break the ban but they were stopped by scores of villagers.
Upset at her attempt being foiled, Trupti Desai, who led the Bhumata Ranragini Brigade, said she would file an FIR against Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis if he failed to honour the Bombay High Court order facilitating entry of women into places of worship.
Vowing to intensify the campaign for gender justice after the tense faceoff, Desai said a police complaint would be filed against those who prevented the activists from entering the core area of the shrine in Ahmednagar district.The High Court on Friday held that entry to temples was a fundamental right of women and it was the State's fundamental duty to protect it.
