Ahmedabad:

The High Court of Gujarat suspended Saturday the annual Rath Yatra of Lord Jagannath of Ahmedabad, scheduled for June 23, given the current situation of coronaviruses.

Hearing of a Public Interest Litigation (PIL), a divisional seat of Chief Justice Vikram Nath and Judge JB Pardiwala suspended all profane and religious activities related to Rath Yatra, after taking into account the petitioner’s observations and respondents and the recent Supreme Court order stays Rath Yatra in Puri.

The PIL, filed by journalist and activist Hitesh Chavda through his lawyer Aum Kotwal, had asked the HC to order him not to authorize the annual procession in view of the coronavirus pandemic.

According to the state government, the number of COVID-19 cases in the Ahmedabad district rose to 18,564 on Saturday while the death toll stood at 1,312.

The state government has told HC that the procession will cover a distance of approximately 18 km and that approximately 7 to 8 lakh people will participate.

Although the state government has not yet given the green light for the Rath Yatra, Interior Minister Pradipsinh Jadeja said on Wednesday that a decision would be made after examining the situation in the city.

The petitioner had expressed serious concerns, claiming that the procession had passed through certain localities which are among the most affected by the coronavirus pandemic.

Several containment zones fall under the Yatra road, organized each year by the Shri Jagannathji Mandir Trust.

Thousands of people are at risk of being infected with a coronavirus if the procession is allowed to be organized, said the PIL.

“In such a scenario, all the work done by authorities, civil societies and citizens to fight leviathan like COVID-19 will go in vain and lead us to a rather despicable and horrible situation,” he said. .

The yatra route passes through several cluster containment and micro-containment areas, he said.

There are a total of 36 micro-containment zones in the city.

Earlier, temple officials said they would only remove Lord Jagannath chariots without a procession.
