casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: Manikchand v. Sakarchand (CA 5060/2008) In this interim application heard on 05-04-2023, the Supreme Court rejected the appellants' challenge to a prior order permitting the Shwetambari sect to apply plaster (lep) on an idol. The Court clarified that maintenance plaster to prevent wear and tear does not alter the idol's nature or status, dismissing the applicants' concerns as misconceived. The Court directed that the Shwetambari sect may continue completing the plaster application and authorized repair of damaged portions under District Administration supervision. The interim application was disposed of accordingly. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
