J Nagarathna: are you expecting there should be a determination?

Giri:the question as to whether it should be to ascertain with reference to the tenets of the religion is only to show that it is a religious practice.

J Amanullah: then we come back to the moot question-there has to be some sort of even a threshold, prima facie or tentative to be gone into whether its an religious practice. we come back to the same quesiton, waht extent?

J Nagarathna: once you determine a practice stricto senso as secular practice, all others become religious practice. where is the question of any authority or questioning whether it is an essential religious practice or religious practice. Yes, the line of inquiry could be whether a particular practice is a secular practice, that the court can determine. Then anything else would be a religious practice.

Giri: when its against public order, morality or health, the court is entitled to interfere. even though we are not under article 25(1), those words are actually used in article 25(2).
