Madras High Court: Non-Hindus Wearing Religious Markers Must Affirm Reverence to Enter Agamic Temples

The Madras High Court has ruled that non-Hindus wearing religious markers may not enter Agamic temples unless they affirm reverence for the deity. Under the existing system, non-Hindus seeking to cross the temple flagstaff were only required to declare faith in the deity and agree to follow temple customs. The new ruling extends those requirements to cover people displaying religious markers. The change alters the access rules that had applied to such visitors. The report is based on NDTV coverage of the judgment.
