The Kerala High Court has stayed the release of the controversial film Kerala Story 2 for 15 days, just a day before its scheduled debut. Petitioners argued that the film could incite communal tensions, prompting the court to issue an interim order halting screenings.
In view of the impugned order, Muslim women students have been asked to not wear the 'religious garments, including head-scarf, and not insist on wearing religious attire, stated the appeal while seeking stay on the High court order.
The court also said that the order would also be applicable to 356 prisoners who were granted bail by the high court and they would have to surrender before the jail authorities on November 13.
