Sabarimala row intensifies...Sabarimala Rakshana samiti calls for 12-hour strike in Kerala today..The samiti opposes the entry of women into Sabarimala shrine

It’s the first morning following the tense opening of the temple doors in Sabarimala and once again protesters blocked a woman from climbing the steps to the hill shrine. Suhasini Raj, a journalist working in Delhi, was forced to turn back by the devotee groups protesting women entry being allowed into the shrine despite police protection.

The Lord Ayyappa temple in Sabarimala had opened its iron gates on Wednesday for the first time since the Supreme Court allowed women of menstrual age to enter the shrine but none from the "banned" age group could make it to its hallowed precincts amid a welter of protests and violent clashes. A private news channel's crew covering the Sabarimala protests was attacked by a mob at the Nilakkal base camp, the main gateway to the hill shrine. 

Members of Sabarimala Rakshana Samiti have decided to stage a 12-hour protest. 

Section 144 has been imposed in many any areas in and around the temple like Pamba, Nillakkal, Sannidhanam and Elavungal. 

Women above 50 years entered the temple last night but women between the age groups of 10 and 50 haven't yet entered the temple.
