A nine-judge bench of the Supreme Court will start hearing a bunch of petitions against the entry of women at the Sabarimala Temple from April 7. The apex court had in 2018 allowed the entry of women of all ages in the Sabarimala Sree Dharma Sastha Temple dedicated to Lord Ayyappa, ending the decades old practice that barred women from 10 to 50 years of age from entering the shrine.
