Dharma vs religion PIL: Delhi HC issues notice to Centre, Delhi govt https://www.rediff.com/news/report/dharma-vs-religion-pil-delhi-hc-issues-notice-to-centre-delhi-govt/20231108.htm Nov 8th 2023 ”religion has been one of the most potent divisive forces in all history” while ”dharma” is ”different because it unites”. ”There can never be divisions in dharma. Every interpretation is valid and welcome. No authority is too great to be questioned, too sacred to be touched. Unlimited interpretative freedom through free will is the quintessence of dharma, for dharma is as limitless as truth itself. No one can ever be its sole mouthpiece,” stated the petition.
The petitioner urged the court to pass appropriate directions considering the ”present circumstances of religious wars, religious hatred and religious hate speeches”.
