ISSUE:
Whether the right to manage a religious denomination's affairs under Article 26(b) could be overridden by a law like the Temple Entry Act that aimed to open temples to all Hindus?
Whether the Sri Venkataramana Temple at Moolky qualifies as a "temple" under Section 2(2) of the Madras Act 5 of 1947 and, if so, whether it constitutes a "denominational temple?”
RULE:
The right to enter a temple for worship under Article 25(2)(b) is not absolute and unlimited, and can be subject to reasonable regulations and limitations to harmonize it with the rights of the denomination under Article 26(b).
