Supreme Court Clears Way in Godhra Case

The Supreme Court of India has rejected a legal challenge filed by the convicts in the 2002 Godhra train burning case. The petition argued that a two-judge bench was not authorized to hear appeals involving the death penalty. However, the apex court affirmed that the current bench has full legal authority to proceed with the matter.

This verdict marks a significant step forward in one of India’s most high-profile cases, reinforcing judicial clarity and setting a precedent on bench competence in capital punishment matters. The Court’s decision clears procedural hurdles, allowing the appeals process to continue as scheduled.

Legal experts note that this ruling may influence future interpretations of judicial bench requirements in capital cases.
