Why Chhattisgarh High Court denied Christian man permission to bury father in native village

The Chhattisgarh High Court denied a Christian man permission to bury his father in his native village due to the belief that it violated local customs. The man, a Christian, had sought to bury his father in the village, but the local community opposed it, citing traditional customs. The court ruled that while the right to bury is fundamental, it must also respect the cultural and customary practices of the community. The decision raised questions about the intersection of religious freedom and community rights, as the court emphasized the importance of local traditions in certain cases.
