India, Feb. 16 -- The Gauhati High Court has allowed the Assam Government to go ahead with certain preparatory and ancillary works under the Rs 498-crore Kamakhya Corridor project, while making it clear that the main temple structure must not be disturbed in any way. Speaking to the media on Saturday, Advocate General Devajit Lon Saikia said the court permitted the development of a holding ground at Bangshibagan and the improvement of an alternate route for pilgrims. However, it specified that these works must not interfere with the main shrine or core construction of the corridor project.

The Kamakhya Corridor project, officially known as the Maa Kamakhya Divyalok Pariyojana, aims to upgrade infrastructure around the Kamakhya Temple.
