Since last year, the RSS has attempted but failed to hold processions. The government had refused permission, and the case had gone to the Madras High Court as well. When the RSS announced its route marches, the Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi reacted by announcing a human-chain movement for social harmony. The Supreme Court upheld the Madras High Court orders allowing the RSS to hold marches in the state on April 11 and dismissed the Tamil Nadu government’s appeals.
