Lord Ayyappa's Sabarimala temple situated on the foothills of Kerala turned into a battle field after the Supreme Court ordered that the temple would be open to both men and women of all ages. The temple has been carrying decades-old ritual of closing its path to women, as believed to be followed by Lord Ayyappa himself, while he was practicing celibacy and abstaining from all worldly pleasures and distractions. The Supreme Court will hear the review petitions on November 13. Will their prayers be answered finally?
