New Delhi, Apr (ANI): Women activists on Saturday welcomed the Bombay High Court’s ruling declaring that no law prevents women from entering places of worship in connection to the entry of women devotees into the sanctum sanctorum of the Shani Shinganapur Temple. Meanwhile, Bhumata Brigade activists led by Trupti Desai are all set to march to the temple in Maharashtra’s Ahmednagar District. The temple drew attention in November 2015 after a woman offered prayers in 'breach' of the age-old practice of prohibiting the entry of women.
