Supreme Court asks women to be patient on Sabarimala row
- The Supreme Court today declined to pass an order on a petition by two women who sought protection to enter the Sabarimala temple in Kerala.
- The top court said the issue was "very emotive" and it did not want the situation to become "explosive".
- The Kerala government now maintains it will not provide security to "activists" who try to enter Sabarimala.
- The Supreme court had last year allowed girls and women of all age groups to visit the Lord Ayyappa temple at Sabarimala in Kerala, following which a batch of review petitions was filed.
- Last month, the top court while deciding on a petition to review its 2018 order referred the matter to a larger seven-judge bench.
