Article 25 | State Cannot Restrict Religious Rituals Without Concrete Evidence of Public Order Threat: Allahabad HC
The Allahabad High Court has ruled that religious prayers and rituals cannot be curtailed by state authorities absent tangible proof of a threat to public order, reinforcing that fundamental rights under Article 25 are not contingent on administrative discretion. This sets a critical precedent for minority religious groups facing unwarranted interference in places of worship, especially in rural and semi-urban districts.
