Striking Down Entire Madarsa Education Act Wrong, Only Violative Provisions Needed To Be Nullified: UP Govt To Supreme Court

The Uttar Pradesh government argued before the Supreme Court that striking down the entire Madarsa Education Act was excessive. It claimed that only provisions violating the Constitution should have been nullified. The state opposed the earlier ruling that invalidated the entire act, emphasizing the need to retain certain beneficial aspects of the legislation while addressing unconstitutional sections. The state stressed a balanced approach in legislative review, ensuring that religious and educational rights are not infringed.
