The Supreme Court reviewed its earlier judgment regarding the entry of women into the Sabarimala temple, reaffirming the constitutional principles of equality and non-discrimination. The court emphasized that religious practices cannot infringe upon fundamental rights guaranteed under the Constitution. The review petition was dismissed, maintaining the earlier ruling that allowed women of all ages to enter the temple.
