    Case Summary: WP No. 23579/2026 Court Decision: The Madras High Court granted the petitioners' request and directed the District Collector and Superintendent of Police to provide adequate police protection for the annual Theppotsavam (Float Festival) scheduled for June 21-27, 2026. The court recognized the festival as a long-standing customary religious practice of seven ancient Sri Vaishnava temples and held that such practices should be permitted despite the festival venue (Thirupparkadal tank) being government property, as the tank was likely constructed to serve the temples.
