The Karnataka High Court has temporarily paused a controversial order issued by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's government that required prior permission for gatherings of over 10 people in public spaces. This ruling comes amid escalating tensions between the Congress government and the RSS, with BJP alleging the order specifically targeted RSS activities. The government plans to appeal the court decision as political controversy continues over the use of public spaces and government property for organizational activities.
