Indian Express·2h ago·Neutral
What Happened
Kerala's Left Democratic Front government and the Centre filed written submissions Monday supporting review of the Supreme Court's 2018 Sabarimala judgment that removed age restrictions on women's entry to the shrine. A nine-judge Constitution Bench will hear the case Tuesday. The Centre argued the judgment contained errors and failed to account for Hinduism's internal diversity. Kerala requested wide consultations before changing religious practices. The ruling reverses Kerala's earlier support for the 2018 decision.
