BHOPAL: State government, in its Cabinet meeting on Tuesday, permitted Garba and DJ in colonies and residential areas but it will remain prohibited at commercial level in Madhya Pradesh. DJ will be permitted till 10.00PM as per Supreme Court guidelines.

The permission will be given on the basis of visitors. Guidelines for Durga idols will be the same as they were for the Ganesh idols. However, now five people will be permitted instead of four at place of puja inside the pandals. Chal-Samaroh will remain prohibited.”
