Title WOMEN'S RIGHTS - Entry into Holy Shrines
Date-wise Events August 26, 2016:   Bombay High Court allowed women’s entry into the Haji Ali Dargah’s inner sanctum. The decision came after a PIL challenging the ban stated that gender justice is inherent in the Quran, and the decision contravenes the Hadith, which says that there is no prohibition on women visiting graves.
October 24, 2016:   Women will be allowed to enter Mumbai’s Haji Ali Dargah in a month’s time, the shrine’s trust told the Supreme Court on this day. It's a landmark victory for female worshippers who are still barred from some of India’s most holy places.
