No change in govt’s stand on Sabarimala: Kerala CM

Team Udayavani, Aug 29, 2019, 6:57 PM IST

Thiruvananthapuram: Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Thursday asserted that there was no change in the CPI(M)-LDF government’s stance on Sabarimala and lashed out at the BJP saying the saffron party had “cheated” devotees in the name of new legislation.

“There is no change in the state government’s stand on Sabarimala. Our stand was to implement the Supreme Court order. If the court orders otherwise, we will act accordingly,” Vijayan told reporters here.

The apex court had on September 28 last year allowed women of all age groups to offer prayers at the Lord Ayyappa temple at Sabarimala, thereby lifting the centuries-old ban on girls and women in the 10-50 age group.
