Karnataka HC to apartment: Rethink on curbs, kids have right to play

Karnataka High Court ruled that playing games is a fundamental right for children.

The court directed Esteem Gardenia Apartment Owners Association to reconsider its play area restrictions within three months.

The association must consult residents to decide which games are permitted, without depriving children of play opportunity.

The court ordered removal of flowerpots from common stairways and areas due to safety hazards.

Resident Sangeeta Agrawal had suffered injuries after slipping on a wet floor caused by watering of pots.
