Supreme Court stays Kerala HC decision annulling KDRB’s power of appointment to Guruvayur Devaswom
The Supreme Court has stayed the Kerala High Court's decision that annulled the Kerala Devaswom Recruitment Board's (KDRB) power to appoint officials to the Guruvayur Devaswom. The KDRB had challenged the High Court's decision, arguing that its functions were limited to recruitment and did not interfere with the religious duties of the temple. This stay order by the Supreme Court is significant as it preserves the KDRB's role in temple administration, which is an important issue for competitive exam preparation.
