RSS march postponed in Karnatka's Gurmitkal for want of permission

Gurumatkal (Yadgir district): The “Path Sanchalan” (route march) of the Rashtriya Swayamsevaka Sangha scheduled to be held in Gurmitkal on
October 25 has been postponed since the authorities concerned were yet to decide on its application seeking permission.

The organisers had made an application to the tahsildar on October 21 seeking permission to take out the route march.

Since there was no reply, they met the tahsildar on Thursday and the latter informed them that he had no powers to grant permission.

On the same day, the organisers made an application to the office of the deputy commissioner seeking permission.

The DC told them that permission cannot be granted in haste and asked the organisers to fix another date for the march and seek permission.

“According to the government circular, permission must be obtained within three days for any programme at public places. The organisers have now submitted a fresh application and we are scrutinising it. Permission will be granted if everything is found to be proper,” Deputy Commissioner Harshal
Bhoyar said.
