Karnataka High Court Stays SIT Probe into Art of Living Land Encroachment Allegations
The Karnataka High Court has stayed a government order forming a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe alleged land encroachment by Sri Sri Ravi Shankar's Art of Living Foundation and its affiliates. The petitioners argued that proper joint surveys and boundary determinations were not conducted as required by law before declaring encroachment. The court noted procedural lapses under the Karnataka Land Revenue Act and will hear the matter further on August 17.
