A Division Bench of the High Court on Tuesday directed the Travancore Devaswom Board (TDB) to ensure that Appam and Aravana at Sabarimala are prepared in accordance with the standards prescribed by the Food Safety Commissioner.
The Bench comprising Justice P.N. Ravindran and Justice P.B. Suresh Kumar ordered that if the ‘prasadom’ had not been prepared as per the prescribed standards, it should not be distributed to devotees.
The court asked the District Collector, Pathanamthitta, and the District Police Chief to ensure compliance.
The court also recalled that the Bench had already issued directives to supply quality food at Sabarimala during the Mandalam-Makaravilakku season. The Bench said it had ordered steps to ensure the quality of ‘prasadom’ ingredients
