Call for 1991 Sabarimala case records: Kerala

The Hindu  

In a submission that may indicate the Kerala government’s position on access to women aged between 10 and 50 to the Sabarimala shrine, the State asked the Supreme Court on Monday to call for the records of a 1991 judgment of the Kerala High Court, which held that the restriction was in accordance with a usage from time immemorial and not discriminatory under the Constitution. A Division Bench of the Kerala HC had, on April 5, 1991, examined the Sabarimala Thanthri and upheld the restriction on women of a particular age group offering worship at the shrine. The verdict referred to the belief that the deity is a ‘Naisthik Brahmachari.’ ‘Customs must be followed’ The Kerala government urged the Court to consider the assertion made in 1991 by the then Sabarimala Thanthri Sri Neelakandaru that women belonging to the 10 to 50 age group were prohibited from entering the temple even before 1950. A Division Bench of the Kerala High Court had examined him on April 5, 1991, before it upheld the restriction on women of that age group offering worship at the Sabarimala shrine.
