Apex Court Says it Will Decide Larger Issue of Women’s Entry Into Religious Places - (14 Jan 2020)

CIVIL

Apex Court has said that it would only examine the larger issue of faith based customs violating the fundamental rights of women and lay down guidelines for judicial scrutiny of Petitions raising issues relating to clash of faith with fundamental rights. The Court would not pronounce on Petitions seeking a Review of the Supreme Court’s Order overturning Sabarimala Shrine’s Tradition.
