Supreme Court Stays UP, Uttarakhand Eatery Directive
News summary

The Supreme Court has issued an interim stay on the Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand governments' directive requiring eateries along the Kanwar Yatra route to display the names of their owners and employees. The court, however, mandated that the type of food being served must still be displayed. The directive faced significant backlash, with critics arguing that it targets Muslim traders and promotes exclusion by identity. Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra and the NGO Association of Protection of Civil Rights filed petitions challenging the order, calling it unconstitutional and socially divisive. The Supreme Court's decision comes as the controversy has drawn widespread criticism from both opposition and some NDA allies. The case continues to be a focal point of discussion in the ongoing parliamentary session.
