Section 144?

Why do we need to put Puttaparthi under Section 144? That I feel, is something totally uncalled for.

If Sai Baba’s condition is critical, people would be in fact sad & would do prayers… May be candle light march & bhajans! Ain’t it?

 

The news of Sathya Sai Baba's deteriorating condition has caused concern to his devotees in India and abroad who see him as the incarnation of god.

Police have imposed prohibitory orders undersection 144 of the Indian Penal Code, banning assembly of five or more persons in the town.

The forces have also taken control of the Sathya Sai Super Speciality Hospital at Prashanti Gram village on the outskirts of the town. All the roads leading towards the hospital have been sealed.
