Bengaluru: The High Court on Thursday save its verdict with respect to pills that challenged the anointing of a 16-year-old boy as Mathadhipaat / Pyniff of Shiroor Mutt, one of the Ashta Mutt from Udupi.
The division bench headed by the acting Chair of the Haksih Satish Chandra Sharma heard a long party before ordering a verdict.
Senior Advocate SS Naganand, who helped the court as Amicus Curiae, told the court that there was no law, which was far less constitutional, the bar at the age of less than 18 years was initiated to Sanyaasa and it was not a destructive practice.
About the practice of Dwandwa Mutt or pairing the Mutt system, where Mutt’s head pairly has the authority to point to the successor like that if the head of one Mutts dies without nominating his successor, he said Madras High Court had recognized the habit in 1917.
Advice for Sri Vadiraja’s sodes Mutt, who has an impanished 16-year-old PONTIFF, claims that the applicant has a personal interest in this problem as one of them is the brothers of Pyniff of Shiroor Mutt.
And the other is his relative, who wants to make one of their pope boys.
The government’s advocate told the court that the prayers sought in the petition cannot be given in pills because Mutt is a private entity and adds that Article 25 and 26 of the constitution summarized certain religious rights.
