Supreme Court allows immersion of idols in Hussain Sagar lake

The order of the High Court will be implemented from next year

Hearing a petition challenging the Telangana High Court’s decision on immersion of Ganesh idol in Hussain Sagar Lake in Hyderabad, the Supreme Court has allowed idol immersion in Hussain Sagar Lake this year. Along with this, the Supreme Court ordered the implementation of the High Court’s decision to immerse the idols in Hussain Sagar Lake from next year.

Allowing Ganesh idols to be immersed in Hussain Sagar lake this year, the Supreme Court also said that the idols will be immediately removed by crane and shifted to a solid waste site. Along with this, the Supreme Court said that the High Court’s guidelines for immersing idols in Hussain Sagar lake should be implemented from next year.
In this case, the Chief Justice told the state government that I know about the pollution of Hussain Sagar lake. There is a problem of drinking water and there are many problems in beautifying and maintaining the lake, you know it happens every year, so why not take timely steps? The Chief Justice said lakhs of people would participate in the Ganpati festival this year. We are giving permission this year because he is saying that the idols will be immersed immediately. The Chief Justice said that the discipline and cooperation of the public is also important. Is it possible to instruct millions about this lake or tank lake or other lake? We are also not happy with the government action, but cannot take a decision at the last minute.
The Telangana High Court recently ordered non-immersion of plaster of Paris (POP) Ganesh idols in Hussain Sagar lake. The state government had filed a review petition against the order of the High Court. Hearing this, the Telangana High Court refused to amend its order banning the immersion of POP-made Ganesh idols in Hussain Sagar. The court had dismissed the revision petition filed by the state government to allow the idols of POPs to be immersed in the lake.
