💨 Abstract

The Supreme Court has declined to intervene in a PIL challenging the practice of charging additional fees for VIP darshan and granting preferential treatment to certain individuals in temples. The court stated that the issue should be decided by the society and temple management, not the judiciary. The petition argued that the practice violated the principles of equality enshrined in the Constitution and created a divide between wealthy and disadvantaged devotees.
