A three-member bench, headed by Chief Justice Arvind Bobde in the Indian Supreme Court, heard petitions filed against the controversial anti-Muslim law. The court has given the Modi government another four weeks, refusing to submit a ruling on the controversial anti-Muslim law.



According to Indian media reports, the court decided to constitute a five-member bench to review the 143 petitions filed against the controversial law. During the hearing, Chief Justice Arvind Bobde said that a Constitutional Bench of five judges could decide on the matter and in the meantime gave the government more time to explain its position.
