February 19, 2026

THE Supreme Court on Wednesday decided to list for final hearing a batch of pleas challenging the validity of certain provisions of a 1991 law which prohibit filing of a lawsuit to reclaim a place of worship or seek a change in its character from what prevailed on August 15, 1947.

- SUCHITRA KALYAN MOHANTY

A bench comprising Chief Justice Surya Kant and justices Joymalya Bagchi and Vipul M Pancholi was urged by senior advocate Rakesh Dwivedi, appearing for PIL petitioner Ashwini Upadhyay, that the final hearing be accorded as the questions were framed way back on October 12, 2022. The senior lawyer said the Centre, which was asked to file its response to the plea by October 31, 2022, is yet to submit its response.
