Kerala High Court Urges Civil Court Resolution in Orthodox-Jacobite Church Dispute
The Kerala High Court has urged that disputes over the management and possession of six churches in Palakkad, Ernakulam, and Kollam districts be resolved through civil courts before deciding on police protection. The Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church supports mediation efforts by the State government and plans to consult legal experts on the recent High Court judgment. The court emphasized the State's neutral role in religious matters but acknowledged its duty to restore peace when law and order are disrupted.
