In a significant ruling, the Supreme Court of India has overruled its 1967 judgment that granted Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) minority status. The earlier decision had recognized AMU as a religious minority institution under Article 30 of the Constitution. However, the latest verdict states that AMU does not qualify for this status, impacting its governance and funding. This decision could reshape the university’s autonomy and its operations as a deemed minority institution.
