Sabarimala Case Live Updates: Supreme Court to resume hearing

What Happened

The Supreme Court's nine-judge bench, led by Chief Justice Surya Kant, resumed hearing on Wednesday regarding women's entry restrictions at Sabarimala temple and religious freedom under the Constitution. The bench includes eight other justices. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta argued for the Central government, contending that temple entry rights must consider devotees' beliefs about who should be permitted. He noted instances where men face restrictions at certain temples and cited cases where male priests must serve female devotees, questioning the assumption that men are superior.
