The Supreme Court of India is set to hear multiple significant cases involving religious and educational rights. One case involves a plea against the Allahabad High Court's decision to scrap the UP Madarsa Education Act, with a final hearing scheduled. Another prominent case concerns the Bombay High Court's verdict upholding a private Mumbai college's ban on wearing hijab, niqab, or any religious identifiers by students on campus. A petition has been filed in the Supreme Court challenging this verdict, and Chief Justice of India, DY Chandrachud, has assigned a Bench to hear the matter soon. Additionally, the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) has urged the Supreme Court to address the conflict of judgments between high courts regarding minor Muslim girls' marriages.
