The Supreme Court has granted Karnataka eight more weeks to resolve a religious dispute at the Dattatreya Peeta shrine, crucial for both Hindus and Muslims. This is the state’s final chance to present an updated report following the contentious ruling allowing only a Muslim priest to perform rituals, which both communities oppose.
The Supreme Court has highlighted the dangers of celebratory firing at weddings, emphasizing the loss of innocent lives. The accessibility of illegal firearms, particularly in Uttar Pradesh, was criticized as a violation of the right to life. Justices also emphasized that the right to bear arms is not a fundamental right protected by the Constitution.
