Sasikala a 46-year-old woman from Sri Lanka tried to enter Sabarimala and she was not allowed to enter by the Ayyappa devotees at Sabarimala.
Protesters have been targeting women under 50 who attempt the trek to the Sabarimala temple after the Supreme Court’s order in September last year.
“I did not get darshan. They did not let me go… I have a medical certificate,” Ms Sasikala earlier said, before the police confirmed that she did manage to offer prayers inside the temple later. Her medical papers show her uterus was removed. Ms Sasikala said she he has fulfilled every condition needed to visit the temple. “They have a 48-day fasting rule; I have done the 48-day fast.”
Priests and many devotees strongly believe that the ban on women between 10 and 50 years should stay as the deity Lord Ayyappa is celibate.
Both the BJP and the Congress have protested against the state government for allowing the two women inside the temple on Wednesday.
Many says that Sasikala climbed the 18 Steps and did dharshan at Sabarimala , the fact said by Sasikala herself here ;
