Astrology can't be banned

Mumbai city-based NGO, Janhit Manch, had started a debate on  the issue " Is astrology a science or an art of making money " in the Bombay high court on March 2010.
A public interest litigation (PIL) filed by the manch and its convener Bhagwanji Raiyani, along with his associate Dattaram Kumkar, has questioned the validity of predictions by well-known astrologers, including Bejan Daruwalla, and unknown babas like Brahmarshi Shri Kumar Swami.
The PIL urged the authorities to ban articles, advertisements, episodes and practices promoting astrology and its related subjects like vastu, reiki, feng shui, tarot, palmistry, zodiac signs and rashifal.
Now on 28 April 2010, Astrology is a “4,000-year old time-tested science” and banning it is unjustifiable, Central government said in its affidavit that was filed in the Bombay High Court.
Advait Sethna, advocate for the central government, argued the Supreme Court had accepted astrology was a science and many universities included it as a subject.
Petitioner Bhagwanji Rayani has made several well-known practitioners of astrology and vastu-shastra a party to the petition. It includes famous astrologer Bejan Daruwala too.
