Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the challenge to the modification of a scheme governing the administration of the Tricherumana @ Kottiyoor Devaswom, initially set aside by the High Court. The Court upheld the High Court's decision to modify the existing scheme, emphasizing that such modifications are permissible to adapt to contemporary needs, as per the principles of trust law. The Court granted special leave, allowing the new Board's actions to continue under review, thereby affirming the High Court's authority to amend outdated schemes.
