The Supreme Court on Tuesday upheld the constitutional validity of the Uttar Pradesh Madarsa Education Act, and cancelled an earlier Allahabad High Court order that struck it down on grounds that the act violated secularism.
A bench comprising Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud, and Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra gave the verdict against the High Court's March 22 judgement striking down the Madarsa Education Act 2004 as "unconstitutional".
