The Supreme Court on Wednesday (April 8, 2026) said courts cannot hollow out religion in the name of reform, and logic may not be the right tool to examine faith and belief systems.
The remarks from the nine-judge Bench headed by Chief Justice of India Surya Kant came during the second day of hearing a reference triggered by a 2018 judgment upholding menstruating women’s right to enter and worship at the Sabarimala shrine in Kerala.
