Date said, &ldquo;The committee will be meeting for the first time on Friday and we will follow the court&rsquo;s instructions but the idea is to address the grievances of the locals.&rdquo; Additionally, the committee will be submitting a report on the feasibility of the venue as well.
The step comes after resident Berges Malu complained about the hardships the residents faced owing to the event. Acting on the petition, the court had passed an order stating that no musical instruments could be played from Rhythm House till Lion Gate. The court had also ordered that organisers of the event should put up at least 12 temporary mobile washrooms and better policing in the area.
