UP To Only Allow 'Symbolic' Yatra If All Devotees Are Vaccinated

SC stated that "Right to life of citizens is paramount" while requesting the UP government on July 16 to reconsider hosting even a "symbolic" Kanwar Yatra. "All other sentiments whether being religious is subservient to this basic fundamental right," the bench added. The court further warned to pass an order cancelling the yatra if the government fails to comply with the request. The next hearing is on July 19.
