Sabarimala entry case: Woman can't be treated as 'untouchable' for 3 days, says SC judge BV Nagarathna

During a significant hearing on gender-based restrictions at religious sites, Supreme Court judge BV Nagarathna observed that a woman cannot be considered untouchable for three days in a month and then suddenly not be so on the fourth day. Her remark came as the top court's nine-judge constitution bench examined petitions involving discrimination against women at places of worship, including the Sabarimala Temple.
