Congress moves SC to seek intervention in pleas challenging validity of 1991 Worship Act

IndiaTimes Thursday, 16 January 2025 ()
Congress moved the Supreme Court to address the legitimacy of the Places of Worship Act, 1991, preserving the 1947 status of religious sites. Exceptions include the Ram Janmabhoomi case. The court restricted fresh disputes and ongoing orders about religious sites pending a decision. Contested petitions challenge the 1947 cut-off date's rationality, questioning its connection to India's independence.
