The Madhya Pradesh High Court today granted permission for holding a government function at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium (JNS) here on June 23 to be attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
A division bench comprising Justices Vivek Rusia and S K Awasthi gave permission to hold the "Swachhata Parv" function while allowing a review petition of the MP government and others.
In 2009, the MP High Court had ordered that its permission was a must to hold an event that is not related to sports at the JNS.
The vacation bench of the HC today observed, "Manoj Dwivedi, learned Additional Advocate General, submits that a team of the NSG has inspected the suitable places available at Indore for organising this programme, to which the office of the Prime Minister of India has given consent."
