Justice RF Nariman of the Supreme Court on Friday said the government must read the ’extremely important dissent; order in the Sabarimala case New Delhi: The government must read the “extremely important dissent” verdict in the 3:2 majority judgement pronounced by the Supreme Court in the Sabarimala case, Justice R F Nariman said on Friday. Justices Nariman and Chandrachud, who were a part of the five-judge Constitution bench in the Sabarimala case, on Thursday dissented from the majority verdict and dismissed the plea seeking review of the apex court’s earlier judgment allowing entry of women of all ages to the Sabarimala temple. Terming the denial of entry to “unarmed women” into the Sabarimala temple as a “sad spectacle”, the minority verdict by the Supreme Court on Thursday had held that enforcement of its 2018 order is “non-negotiable” and no person or authority can flout it. “Today, it is no longer open to any person or authority to openly flout a Supreme Court judgement or order, given the constitutional scheme,” the verdict had said.
