Initially, police denied permission citing the uniform resembles that of armed forces of Union or police and a case has been filed with the High Court under W P No.54/16. Honourable Judge M M Sundresh dismissed the case and allowed RSS Pathsanchalan with Sangh Uniform and Ghosh (musical instruments). Judge further observed that the Sangh uniform in question is not with reference to that of uniform of police or any armed forces.
On musical instruments, Judge observed,”There is absolutely no material to hold that mere usage of musical instruments would cause law and order situation affecting the public peace. Similarly the petitioners are not using the sticks and clubs by way of arms in which case certainly Section 41A would be attracted. When the usage is for the purpose of musical instruments they would form part of musical instruments and therefore they cannot be termed as sticks. Therefore the said conditions imposed cannot be sustained in the eyes of law. Accordingly the two conditions are hereby set aside. Around 1135 swayamsevaks of Kanyakumari district participated in route march held today at Thakkalai.
