The Supreme Court today reacted sharply to the decision of the Kerala government to announce a three-day relaxation from Covid restrictions in the state for Bakrid. The top court said Kerala's move to "give in to pressure groups" was "wholly uncalled for". "We direct Kerala to give heed to Article 21 read with Article 144 of the Constitution of India and follow our orders given in the Kanwar Yatra case," the court said.
