casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: Om Prakash v. State of UP (2004) The Supreme Court upheld the Municipal Board of Rishikesh's ban on sale of eggs, meat, and fish within municipal limits, dismissing Om Prakash's challenge. The Court held that the complete prohibition was a reasonable restriction on trade under Article 19(6) of the Constitution, justified by the towns' religious and cultural significance as major pilgrimage centers with large vegetarian populations and the interests of pilgrims visiting for spiritual practices.
