In a landmark 4:3 decision, a seven-judge bench of the Supreme Court today overruled the 1967 S. Azeez Basha vs. Union of India verdict, which had previously held that an institution created by statute could not claim minority status. The case involves Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) and its long-debated status as a minority institution. The court determined that a statutory basis does not automatically disqualify an institution from minority status and has directed a regular bench to decide the issue based on who was instrumental in establishing AMU.
