<h1>Hindu group urges faith-only entry, Aadhaar and worship checks at Garba; raises Article 15, privacy and public-order concerns</h1> A Hindu organisation advised that only persons of the Hindu faith be admitted to Navratri garba events and urged organisers to check Aadhaar, apply religious marks and require worship before entry; organisers asserted the right to impose entry conditions if events have police permission. A state ruling-party minister backed organisers' discretion, while opposition figures condemned the directive as divisive. Legally, the policy raises potential issues under constitutional protections against religious discrimination and equality, data privacy concerns from mandatory Aadhaar checks, and public-order considerations for police permitting and enforcement.
