Karnataka High Court overturns order to place Hanuman birthplace temple under Muzrai department

The Karnataka High Court has nullified a recent government order that sought to transfer the administration of the Hanuman birthplace temple to the state's Muzrai department.
The bench delivered its verdict after hearing a petition filed by the temple's custodians, who argued that the order bypassed established procedural safeguards.
In its ruling, the court emphasized that the existing management structure of the temple should remain intact unless a proper legal process dictates otherwise.
The decision reaffirms the judiciary's oversight in disputes involving the governance of religious institutions in Karnataka.
