HC disposes of contempt petition by Cubbon Park Walkers’ Association
After reviewing opinions of all departments, the State government has come to the conclusion that movement of vehicles within Cubbon Park cannot be avoided.
This decision of the government, taken on November 21, 2020, was submitted to the High Court in a contempt of court petition filed by Cubbon Park Walkers’ Association. The Association had alleged that the government had not considered its representation to ban traffic within Cubbon Park despite a direction by the High Court in October last year.
