Object held sacred
Object held sacred, the word 'object' has to be interpreted 'ejusdem generis' with a place of worship. Interpreted like that,it would mean that the section would apply only to cases where an idol in a temple is sought to be destroyed, damaged, or defiled. The words 'any object held sacred by any class of persons' even otherwise will apply only to idols in a temple or when they are carried out in processions on festival occasions, A. Veerabhadran Chettiar v. E.V. Ramaswami Naicker, AIR 1955 Mad 550. (Indian Penal Code, s. 295)Any object however trivial or destitute of real value in itself, if regarded as sacred by any class of persons would come within the meaning of the Penal Section, Veerabadran Chettiari v. E. V. Ramaswami Naicker, AIR 1958 SC 1032 (1035): 1959 SCR 1211. (Indian Penal Code, s. 295)...
