Which of the following statements about the Sabarimala temple is/are correct?
- The dispute over the trust's property is the main issue in the court case related to the Sabarimala temple.
- The ban on entry for women between the ages of 10 and 50 is at the heart of the court case related to the Sabarimala temple.
- Earlier, a bench of the Supreme Court had held the ban on entry for women to be unconstitutional.
Choose the correct option from the following.
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The core of the Sabarimala litigation is the bar on women of menstruating age, 10 to 50 years, not a property dispute, so statement 1 is wrong and statement 2 is correct. In its 2018 judgment the Supreme Court held the exclusion of these women unconstitutional, so statement 3 is correct. The right combination is 2 and 3.
