Rejecting the Centre and Delhi Police's submission that a cap of 20 devotees be enforced, the court said that that there cannot be a limit on the number of devotees allowed inside the Nizamuddin Markaz if no other religious place has a similar restriction in light of the COVID-19 surge, the daily said in its report.
