El Tribunal Supremo expresó el jueves su preocupación por que la frecuente intervención judicial en asuntos religiosos pueda socavar la identidad civilizatoria de la India, donde la fe permanece profundamente conectada con la sociedad.

Un tribunal de nueve jueces dirigido por el presidente del Tribunal Supremo, Surya Kant, escuchó los argumentos relacionados con el caso de la entrada al templo de Sabarimala y otras cuestiones vinculadas a la comunidad Dawoodi Bohra.

La jueza B. V. Nagarathna señaló que la religión constituye una constante en la sociedad india. Cuestionó si los desafíos reiterados a las prácticas religiosas ante los tribunales constitucionales dañarían el carácter civilizatorio de la nación.

El abogado principal Raju Ramachandran argumentó que las prácticas de excomunión violan los derechos fundamentales. El tribunal examinó si tales poderes están protegidos bajo el Artículo 26(b) de la Constitución.

El juez M. M. Sundresh observó que los tribunales corren el riesgo de verse arrastrados a disputas interminables si se cuestiona cada asunto religioso. Los argumentos continuarán la próxima semana.

Las cuentas de noticias legales destacan la preocupación sobre la deferencia judicial hacia la fe frente al escrutinio de los derechos fundamentales. Las reacciones son en gran medida neutrales, centrándose en la cautela del tribunal contra la sobreintervención sin opiniones partidistas marcadas.
