The Allahabad High Court on Monday fixed September 24 for further hearing of a petition seeking a direction to the Centre to give subsidies to pilgrims wanting to visit Ram Setu off Ramashweram coast in Tamil Nadu.A division bench headed by Chief Justice H L Gokhale and Justice S S Chauhan deferred the matter till September 24 after hearing the petitioner, Hindu Personal Law Board President Ashok Pandey.The petition, quoting extensively from the 'Ramcharitmanas,' has pleaded that Lord Rama himself had asked his disciples to visit the setu.The petitioner, therefore, wants that a visit to the setu be arranged for all those interested.
