Directive issued

for rehabilitation

BANGALORE: V. Gopala Gowda, chairman of the Karnataka State Legal Services Authority, has directed that Ambika, a Devadasi, be rehabilitated. In a letter to the Department of Women and Child Development, he said the Authority should be informed of the steps taken and whether the guidelines issued by the Supreme Court have been followed.

Certain sections of the media had reported that Ambika, a resident of Kamalapur, was made a Devadasi at the age of 16 at the Huligamma temple. After completing SSLC, she applied for the post of assistant in an anganwadi centre but was not selected. Therefore, she was compelled to continue being a Devadasi. — Staff Reporter
