Rules for immersing certain idols will stay in place for now. These rules were first put in place to make celebrations more environmentally friendly. A court had given interim directions, which led to the creation of these rules.

Idol makers and sellers have to follow certain norms. For example, idols must have a specific mark on them.

The rules will be enforced by various government bodies until a final decision is made by a court. Further information can be found in a circular issued by the state Environment and Climate Change Department.
