The Supreme Court said on Friday that Jains could offer prayers, on Saturday and Sunday only, at any one of three temples in Mumbai - in the city's Dadar, Byculla and Chembur neighbourhoods - as part of festivities surrounding the eight-day Paryushan festival. The top court said prayers could be offered as long as SOPs in place during the Covid pandemic, including the use of face masks and social distancing, were strictly enforced.
