KDRB moves SC against HC annulment of its power of appointment to Guruvayur Devaswom

The Kerala Devaswom Recruitment Board (KDRB) has appealed to the Supreme Court against a Kerala High Court ruling that struck down its authority to appoint candidates for various posts in Guruvayur Devaswom and government-aided institutions. The KDRB argues its role is limited to recruitment, not religious duties, while the High Court directed adherence to the Guruvayur Devaswom Act, 1978, for appointments. The court also established a special committee to oversee the appointment process.
