The CJI said that patriarchy of religion cannot trump faith. He said: “Women no way inferior to men. On one hand, women are worshipped as Goddesses, but there are restrictions on the other hand. Relationship with God can’t be defined by biological or physiological factors.”
The Apex Court also added that Sabarimala devotees are not a particular denomination.
