Madurai Karthigai Deepam Standoff: Police Block Access Despite HC Order | Section 144 Imposed

In this Special Report, India Today’s Senior Editor Pramod Madhav reports from Thiruparankundram Hills in Madurai, where tensions have escalated during the Karthigai Deepam festival. Despite a Madras High Court order by Justice G.R. Swaminathan permitting the lighting of the lamp at the ancient ‘Deepathoon’ pillar near Sikandar Dargah, police have blocked access citing law and order concerns. Pramod Madhav states, ‘As the lamp was not lit over the Deepartoon, now the protesters over here… are coming over to this, the foothill of Tiruparankundram.’ The report details the standoff between pro-Hindu groups and the police, the deployment of CISF personnel, and the imposition of Section 144 to maintain peace.
