The Syro-Malabar Church has threatened to oust from the Catholic Church those priests who do not comply with its directive to hold uniform Holy Mass in the Ernakulam-Angamaly Archdiocese starting from 3 July this year. The Archdiocese Protection Council rejected the circular and said they would continue to celebrate Holy Mass facing the faithful.
