All eyes will be on the all party meeting called by the LDF government in Kerala, which is set to discuss the Sabarimala issue. This meeting comes two days after top court refused to stay its September 28 verdict, but agreed to hear all review petitions on January 22. SC's order means that the government cannot shy away from the responsibility of providing protection to any woman devotee wanting to have Darshan at the temple. Considering all the ramifications of the order and the violent protests that have erupted in Sabarimala, the government will have to look at legal implications and come at the consensus for smooth conduct of the pilgrim season, which is set to begin on the 17th November.
