The statues were vandalized by an unruly mob on 17th of August. Hearing the case filed by some lawyers, the High Court instructed the state authorities to re install the bigger and better statues of Buddha and Mahavira by 12th of September, the next date of hearing.

The Court has also warned that in case of noncompliance of the order, it will constitute a judicial commission to probe the issue. The Court has also directed the state government to submit the report of action, taken against the vandals.
