MAHI SINHA 02 Apr 2025 Update: 02 Apr 2025 NITIN UPADHYAY …………….PetitionerVsUNION OF INDIA AND ORS …………Respondent Today the Supreme Court of India declined to consider a writ petition contesting the legality of Section 4(2) of the Places of Worship Act, 1991, which states that any legal actions pertaining to a place of worship’s religious character that are started prior to August 15, 1947, will end on the Act’s effective date. However, the petitioner was given permission by the court to submit a request in the ongoing challenge to the Act, which is titled Ashwini Kumar Upadhyay v. Union of India. Notably, a number of petitions challenging the legality of the Places of Worship Act, 1991 have already been brought before the Court. On December 12, a bench made up of Justices PV Sanjay Kumar, KV Viswanathan, and Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna issued a landmark ruling prohibiting new lawsuits and survey orders against religious places. At the beginning, the CJI Sanjiv Khanna and Justice Sanjay Kumar bench stated that the current plea was identical to the ongoing challenge. The CJI replied, “This is the same plea, what is the difference?” Nevertheless, the lawyer for the petitioner pleaded with the court to accept it for hearing and include it in the current batch. He further stated, “There is a subtle difference in what is being said, I’ll address the Court.” The Bench declared, “We are not inclined to interfere in the present petition under Article 32 of the Constitution,” declining to consider the case further. Under the currently ongoing challenge, the applicant was given the freedom to file an application. Notably, the Court ruled on December 12 during the hearing of the ongoing case that courts should refrain from issuing enforceable interim or final rulings, including examination orders, in continuing challenges (such as those involving Gyanvapi Mosque, Mathura Shahi Idgah, Sambhal Jama Masjid, etc.). While considering a number of petitions contesting the Places of Worship (Special Provisions) Act, 1991, and one requesting the Act’s execution, the interim ruling was issued. S.4(2) – Why Was This Section Challenged? The petition specifically challenges S.4(2) of the Places of Worship Act, 1991, which specifies that if, at the time this Act is enacted, any suit, appeal, or other proceeding pertaining to the alteration of the religious nature of any place of worship that existed on August 15, 1947, is still pending before any court, tribunal, or other governing body, it will cease to exist, and no suit, appeal, or other proceeding pertaining to any such issue shall lie on or after such beginning in any court, tribunal, or other authority: As long as any lawsuit, appeal, or other action brought on the grounds that a religious conversion occurred in a particular location after August 15, 1947, is still pending at the time this Act goes into effect, it will be resolved in line with subsection (1). According to S.4(1), a house of worship that was established on August 15, 1947, shall maintain its religious identity as of that day. Among other things, Section 4(2) of the Act has been contested on the grounds that it infringed upon fundamental rights guaranteed by Articles 25, 26, and 29 of the Constitution of India by violating the right to reclaim deity-owned property that has been wrongfully taken by other communities.

Over 3 Crore Cases Disposed of in First National Lok Adalat of 2025; Settlement Value Crosses ₹18,212 Crore NITU KUMARI 31 Mar 2025 About Lok Adalats Lok Adalats are alternative dispute resolution mechanisms organised by Legal Services Authorities to provide quick, amicable, and cost-effective settlements to parties involved in legal disputes, often bypassing formal court proceedings. The National Legal Services Authority (NALSA) along with other Legal Services Institutions conducts Lok Adalats. Lok Adalat is one of the alternative dispute redressal mechanisms, it is a forum where disputes/cases pending in the court of law or at the pre-litigation stage are settled/compromised amicably. Lok Adalats have been given statutory status under the Legal Services Authorities Act, 1987. The total value of settlements touched ₹18,212.23 crore, bringing financial relief to individuals and institutions alike. The National Legal Services Authority (NALSA) has announced the successful disposal of over 3.09 crore cases during the first National Lok Adalat of 2025, held across 37 states and union territories. According to NALSA, the first National Lok Adalat of 2025 saw the resolution of more than 3.09 crore cases in 37 States and Union Territories, significantly strengthening the justice delivery system. The statewide campaign, which was led by Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna (NALSA Patron-in-Chief) and Justice B.R. Gavai (NALSA Executive Chairman), assisted in resolving both pre-litigation and outstanding matters, with settlements totaling ₹18,212.23 crore. In a statement, Justice Gavai stated, “The resolution of more than 3.09 crore cases shows the dedication of the legal services authorities to guarantee justice reaches every individual in a timely and efficient manner.” Dissection of Cases Managed NALSA data shows that a total of 50,82,181 pending cases and 2,58,28,368 pre-litigation cases were filed in 13 major categories. The overall rate of disposal was 79.01%. Top Categories by Volume (Pre-Litigation) Water Bills (excluding non-compoundable): 19.57 lakh Criminal Compoundable Offence Cases: 12.07 lakh Electricity Bill Cases: 9.69 lakh Revenue Cases: 78.04 lakh Other Civil Cases: 57.24 lakh Top Categories by Volume (Pending Cases) Criminal Compoundable Offence Cases: 20.66 lakh NI Act (Section 138) Cases: 1.46 lakh Electricity Bills (Pending): 71,769 Other Civil Cases: 83,934 Revenue Cases: 59,134 Highlights of the State With the most disposals, Uttar Pradesh demonstrated the State Legal Services Authority’s efficient mobilization. With an almost flawless 99.95% disposal rate, Jharkhand was the leader in percentage disposal. Beyond Numbers: The Human Impact The human element of delivering justice was highlighted in the NALSA press release, which said that the Lok Adalat did more than simply decide cases; it also assisted: Reduce litigants’ anxiety Mend damaged relationships Provide both financial and psychological relief by putting a stop to protracted legal disputes Conclusion An incredible accomplishment was made in the first National Lok Adalat of 2025: more than 3 crore cases were successfully resolved. The usefulness and efficiency of the Lok Adalat system in settling conflicts is demonstrated by this astounding figure. Additionally, the entire settlement was worth more than ₹18,212 crore. This hefty sum demonstrates the enormous financial advantages of using Lok Adalat to settle conflicts rather than drawn-out and expensive court cases.

NITU KUMARI 18 Mar 2025 Case : Laxmi Devi vs. State of Uttar Pradesh Update: March 2024 The Gyanvapi Mosque in Varanasi city is at the centre of a dispute in court. While Muslims performed namaaz in the mosque and the surrounding courtyard, the Supreme Court of India struck a balance by permitting a selected Hindu priest to continue worshipping inside the Gyanvapi grounds’ cellar, or tehkhana. Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud‘s three-judge panel determined that maintaining the status quo was “appropriate” in order to “allow both communities to offer religious worship.” In this manner, namaaz is offered on the mosque’s grounds. They protect the tehkhana. Chief Justice Chandrachud said verbally that the agreement would be upheld until the trial. The court mandated that neither of the disputing parties would alter the status quo. The Hindu plaintiffs, who are led by veteran attorney Shyam Divan, assert that since Satyug, the whole space of the Gyanvapi mosque in Varanasi has been a temple dedicated to Swayambhu Lord Shiva, referred to here as Adi Vishweshwar. They claimed that the Farman of Emperor Aurangzeb in the year 1669 destroyed the temple, which had previously been located on the Gyanvapi property. The complaint that the Hindus filed in a Varanasi court, according to senior counsel Huzefa Ahmadi for the management of Anjuman Intazamia Masjid, was only a ploy to invade the mosque’s property. Following the suit by the Hindus, who first sought a judicial declaration of their right to worship within the mosque premises, and then the “discovery” of a Shivling, the mosque managers have been engaged in a protracted legal battle. However, the Muslim side asserted that the building was a fountain. The courts had permitted a “scientific survey” and carbon dating of the building. The most recent events include two consecutive rulings by the Varanasi court permitting Hindu religious ceremonies to take place in the mosque’s cellar, which is accessible from the south side of the building. The Bench discovered that while Muslims may enter the mosque for namaaz from the northern side, the cellar could only be accessed from the southern side. Following the directives of January 17 and January 31, Muslims are currently offering namaaz without any restrictions. The Hindu priest’s puja offering is limited to the cellar area. The court clarified that it would be appropriate to preserve the status quo in order to allow both populations to practice their respective religions. The court emphasized that Hindus’ religious worship must be conducted in strict accordance with the guidelines in the January 31, 2024 decision and be under the Receiver’s safe custody as stipulated in the January 17, 2024 order.
