Let our PM identity all these people by their dresses :)
Adv Sai Deepak: By no stretch of imagination is a religious body a state under Article 12. The Travancore Devasom Board is trustee of the Temple. With respect to secular aspects of administration, the board may be subject to a writ, but not on religious aspects.
Counsel: We have to wait for answers to these questions. Without this, we cannot move forward with this issue. Unless we know what is the litmus test to answering these questions and without the Apex Court answering these, we cannot move ahead.
Adv Sai Deepak: What is effectively being done is attempting to fire a bullet from the shoulders Art.14 in the hope of circumventing Art. 16(5). What cannot be done directly cannot be done indirectly.
Counsel takes the court through a judgment of the Kerala HC. The petition in the said case was filed to constitute a committee to frame guidelines on selection of melshanti at the Temple. One criteria was that the appointee be a malayala brahmin.

What is such a big crime by Hindu mahasabha these people are alleging. Gandhi ji was shot a little bit to death is that a big thing. This what he said.
Adv Sai Deepak: Regular traditional practices are protected by Section 15a of the Act. The petitioner has not even challenged this section. In such a situation Art. 21 cannot help the case of the petitioner.
Counsel: Cause of actions are different, in 2016 and in 2020 different rejection orders were challenged.
I've challenged it before and am challenging it again.
