Subramanium: freedom of religion carries with it... ... Sabarimala Reference | Live Updates From Supreme Court 9-Judge Bench [Day 7]

Subramanium: freedom of religion carries with it not only the right to affirmatively and actively engage in religion but also establish boundaries within oneself about the extent to which the person would be willing to go and exercise his rights.

practice and propagate religion- a person may visit an institutional setting, that is Article 26 of the Constitution. So the denomination is where you collectively come together and express your worship, your faith

J Sundresh asked what do the members of a religious denomination do when they arrive at an institution- they exercise rights under article 25(1) but collectively they have rights under article 26. so the freedom under article 26 is not entirely divorced, if I may say so, from the rights which are actually exercised by members of denomination because inside the institution, they exercise article 25(1) rights.

J Bagchi asked if there is a proponent and an opponent even inside a denomination- a denomination has the frreedom to have internal discussion and debates. It doesn't only means that denomination simply take positions of conclusive nature, there can be discussions, there can be debates and they can be a consensus in denominations too. It is inherent in Article 26. It doesn't have to be located in Article 19(1).
