Supreme Court Suggests Petitioners Approach Government for Sanatan Board

A group called the ‘Sanatan Hindu Sewa Sangh Trust’ asked the Supreme Court to make a special board to protect their religion, ‘sanatan dharm.’ They believe that their community is being attacked by followers of other religions. The court, led by Chief Justice Manmohan, said it couldn’t make this decision because it’s about government policy. The judges advised the petitioners to take their request directly to the government. The court explained that they don’t have the power to create a trust as asked. They closed the petition but allowed the group to approach the government for help.
