The Supreme Court today stayed the Uttarakhand government’s order asking the eateries on the Kanwar Yatra route to display the names of shop owners. A bench of Justices Hrishikesh Roy and SVN Bhatti heard the matter and asked state governments to file the responses by Friday.
The bench, however, clarified that the eateries should display the type of food being served. Earlier, on 18th of this month, Muzaffarnagar’s Senior Superintendent of Police issued a directive requiring all eateries along the Kanwar route to display the owners’ names.
