As per reports, the procession at Lal Chowk, Kashmir for Krishna Janmashtami was organised by the devotees of the ISKCON Temple at Tanki Pora Habba Kadal.
The petitioners cited the Supreme Court judgment in the Ayodhya Sri Ram Janmbhoomi case, in which the apex court had granted the land rights to Ram Lalla and had offered a large piece of land to Muslims construct a mosque.
