The Free Press Journal|April 30, 2024
The Supreme Court on Monday agreed to examine a plea seeking a declaration that the persons who do not want to be governed by the Muslim Personal Law must be allowed to be governed by the secular law of the country.

Issuing notice to the Centre and the Kerala government after some deliberation, a bench of Chief Justice D.Y. Chandra- and Justice Manoj Misra, asked the Attorney General R.

Venkataramani to nominate a law officer who can assist the court and posted the matter for hearing in the second week of July 2024.

She said her father too is a non-practising Muslim.
