Case Comment On Vishwa Lochan Madan V. Union Of India

Anoksha M Shetty, OP Jindal Global University

ABSTRACT

The case of Vishwa lochan Madan v. union of India is a landmark judgement that deals with the legal status of fatwas and whether it is creating a parallel judicial system for Muslims. The court ruled that the fatwas and Dar ul Qazas have no legal status in society, and hence, it cannot be said to establish a parallel judicial system in the country. With this case comment, I have analyzed the judgement and stated reasons as to why the court erred by not considering the psychological effects of the fatwas issued by the Dar ul Qazas.
