'People's will through lawmakers can bring religious reforms': Supreme Court Constitutional courts should be extremely reluctant to alter religious practices, a nine-judge Supreme Court bench cautioned. Only the will of the people, expressed through elected representatives in Parliament and assemblies, can bring about reforms in religious customs. The court emphasized that it's impossible to scrutinize every religious practice. #Supreme_Court #Supreme #Court #nine-judge_Supreme #Court_bench #Court_Constitutional #Constitutional_courts #bench_cautioned #extremely_reluctant #Constitutional
Special Supreme Court bench to hear today TMC plea on counting staff Trinamool Congress has moved the Supreme Court, challenging a directive mandating central government employees as counting supervisors or assistants for Bengal's assembly election vote count. The party argues this is arbitrary, discriminatory, and creates bias, especially with the BJP at the Centre. They claim it unfairly alters the counting table composition, undermining a level playing field and free elections. #Supreme_Court #Trinamool_Congress #Court_bench #Bengal_assembly #Special_Supreme #today_TMC #TMC_plea #staff_Trinamool #vote_count #hear_today
