Quoted as the starred question for the day of Wednesday i.e. 03rd July 2019 in the Lok Sabha, The Congress lawmaker & Member of Parliament from Thiruvananthapuram Dr. Shashi Tharoor, asked the Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad in Lok Sabha on Wednesday whether the Central Government is considering or is in the process of drafting any legislation, including an amendment to the constitution, “to overturn the Sabarimala judgement of the Supreme Court "to restore the traditions of the temple”.[1]
In response to the same, the Union Law Minister quotes the matter is “sub-judice before the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India”.

The actual stance of Government in this instant case is a matter of speculation and the times to come will expose the true intent of the Union Government for bringing law or not in the Sabarimala Matter.
