The Supreme Court on Friday asked the answer of the center on a PIL seeking entrance of Muslim women in all mosques of the nation.
A bench comprising Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi and justices S A Bobde and S A Nazeer issued notice to the union ministry of law and justice and Minority Affairs on the plea seeking entry of women in mosques.
The plea was filed by one Yasmeen Zuber Ahmad Peerzade for issuance of direction to government authorities and Muslim bodies like Waqf Board to allow women into mosques on grounds that refusal amounted to devastation of several fundamental rights.
