The Supreme Court of India has scheduled the final hearing for May 6 and 7 on appeals filed by the Gujarat government and several convicts in the 2002 Godhra train burning case. This development follows recent rulings by the Supreme Court, including upholding a 2015 decision by the Himachal Pradesh High Court that acquitted two men convicted in a 2012 case involving the alleged rape of a minor girl. Additionally, the Supreme Court quashed a dowry case against a sister-in-law, her husband, and father-in-law, citing 'omnibus allegations'. The court continues to handle a range of civil and criminal appeals, as reflected in multiple cases listed for consideration, including petitions from various states and entities.
