Sabarimala row: Woman of 52 enters Sabarimala Temple

SABARIMALA: A 52-year-old woman devotee, Latha accompanied by her husband and son, from Trichy in Tamil Nadu on Saturday faced angry devotees ahead of her darshan at Kerala’s Sabarimala temple as they surrounded her before the last few hallowed steps. It was only after senior BJP leader K. Surendran and others rushed to the spot detecting the commotion that the devotees allowed Latha passage to the sanctum sanctorum after checking her identification card. The family then went up the hallowed 18 steps and performed the darshan. (IANS)
