Supreme Court says judiciary cannot interfere with devotees’ sacred right to worship – India News
Conscience and faith are private of individuals: Supreme Court
The bench hearing the Sabarimala case included CJI Surya Kant and Justices BV Nagarathna, MM Sundaresh, Ahsanuddin Amanullah, Arvind Kumar, AG Masih, PB Varale, R Mahadevan and J Bagchi. CJI Kant and Justices Nagarathna, Sundaresh, Kumar and Mahadevan, through their observations, seemed to agree that it would be difficult for the court to examine the validity of the manner and method of worshiping God by a devotee. Raj asked that since there is no provision for such worship in any religious text, what would be the baseline for judicial investigation? The CJI and Justice Nagarathna said that conscience and faith are personal to an individual.Justice Sundaresh said, “Article 25 protects the rights of a believer from a non-believer. It gives importance to the individual’s conscience to practice, propagate and propagate religion. The mode of worship is part of conscience and is a personal space for the devotee and God. It cannot be given a restrictive meaning.” Justice Mahadevan said, “Faith is belief. Its validity cannot be tested.”All major religious communities, represented by senior advocates NK Kaul, K Radhakrishnan, Krishnan Venugopal, Guru Krishna Kumar, Shyam Diwan and Arvind Datar, argued in unison that long-standing practices like those of the Sabarimala temple were based on faith and non-justiciable.

Hulk Hogan’s shocking fentanyl dose after divorce: ‘You should be dead,’ pharmacist warned international sports news
Hulk HoganHogan, whose real name was Terry Bollea, spoke in detail about the most difficult period of his life in his final recorded interview, which was released posthumously in the Netflix documentary Hulk Hogan: Real American. Hogan died in July 2025 at the age of 71 from an acute myocardial infarction, commonly known as a heart attack. The four-part series, completed before his death, follows his life and career and focuses closely on 2009, when he returned to wrestling while battling severe pain, heavy fentanyl use, and the aftereffects of his divorce.
Return to wrestling and drug use levels
Hogan’s narrative focuses on his decision to return to wrestling with Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA), at a time when his body was under stress from years in the ring. He described taking fentanyl in multiple forms at the same time to manage pain from repeated surgeries. “Taking 80 milligrams of fentanyl at two in the morning, stuffing them under my gums…” He said, before detailing the extensive routine: “I had two 300-milligram patches of fentanyl on my legs and they gave me six 1500-milligram fentanyl lollipops to eat.” He recalled a pharmacist’s reaction when he picked up his prescription: “I went into the pharmacy, she said, ‘You should be dead. We’ve never seen a human being take that much fentanyl.'” In the same interview, Hogan said doctors told him straight out that the level he was taking was higher than any he’d ever seen, adding, “I just had so much in my body.”
Injuries and day-to-day situation
The physical conditions behind that dependence run through the chain. Hogan points to multiple back surgeries that left him in constant pain and unable to function normally. “I had to sleep on a chair, and if I moved my finger like that, my whole back would go into spasms and twists,” he said, describing how even small movements would cause severe pain. Eric Bischoff, who worked closely with Hogan and arranged for his move to TNA, described what he looked like during filming and appearances: “I would literally have to go to his hotel and help him get out of bed and get in the shower so he could get ready to go shoot.”

Jeremy Borash, who was involved in the production at the time, said that Hogan was initially expected to appear regularly on screen, but “it became clear very quickly that he was not ready to do that.”
Divorce, Finance and Withdrawal Decision
The timing of Hogan’s return is directly tied to his high-profile divorce from Linda Hogan after 24 years of marriage. He said he had performed “extremely well” after giving them “70 percent” of his net worth. “I gave everything I had to get rid of him,” he said, adding that he was “devastated.”

Bischoff, who negotiated the TNA deal, explained the situation surrounding that decision: “Hulk was reluctant to go, but he needed the money.” He also described the broader circumstances Hogan was dealing with at the time: “Your wife is divorcing you, your doctor is giving you a handful of pills that will kill a horse, and you’re chasing it down with a quart of vodka a day.”
substance use beyond pain management
The documentary also addresses Hogan’s long-term issues with drug use beyond fentanyl.Friends and family spoke about his steroid use during the 1980s and 1990s, as well as his long-term alcohol abuse.Bischoff’s description of that period included both, describing a cycle where Hogan was dealing with prescription drugs along with heavy drinking.
Mental health and lowest points
Hogan also spoke openly about his mental state after his divorce, including a time when he contemplated suicide.“I went home, I started drinking and taking pills, and I just went down this rabbit hole for a few days,” he said. “The next thing I know, I’m sitting in front of my bathroom with a gun in my mouth and don’t know what I’m doing, you know?” Bischoff, reflecting on that period as someone who was in regular contact with him, said: “He was down, he was hurting.”
Family and later life
Following Hogan’s death, Linda Hogan, his ex-wife and mother of his two children, Brooke and Nick, shared a statement on Instagram reflecting on his passing. She said the “end result” of his loss was “shocking”, adding: “We spent every minute together for many years. I’ve known him since he was 28! … It’s so sad. I love you Hulkster. You were my man. The only man for me.” At the time of his death, Hogan was married to his third wife, Sky Daly, whom he married in 2023. He previously divorced Jennifer McDaniel in 2021.
final account
The series brings together Hogan’s own accounts with those who worked closely with him during that period, showing how injury, medication, financial pressures and personal stress all existed together during his final years in and around wrestling.
मुज़फ्फरनगर रजवाहा सफाई अभियान: वर्षों से बंद रजवाहा खुलने लगा, जल निकासी में सुधार होगा- उद्योगों को न उठाना पड़े घाटा, व्यापारियों ने दी चेतावनी
मुजफ्फरनगर सिंचाई विभाग ने लंबे समय से बंद पड़े रजवाहे को दोबारा चालू करने के लिए सफाई और खुदाई का काम शुरू कर दिया है। जेसीबी मशीनों से रजवाहे की सफाई कर सड़क को दोबारा खोलने की प्रक्रिया तेज कर दी गई है, जिससे उम्मीद है कि इलाके में जल निकासी व्यवस्था में सुधार होगा.
इस कार्रवाई को प्रशासन द्वारा सरकारी जमीनों और जलमार्गों को अतिक्रमण से मुक्त कराने के व्यापक अभियान का हिस्सा माना जा रहा है.
रजवाहा भोपा रोड से 2जेड रोड होते हुए जड़ौदा नाले तक जाता है।
स्थानीय किसानों और व्यापारियों के अनुसार, यह रजवाहा भोपा रोड पर विश्वकर्मा चौक के पीछे से शुरू होता है, नई मंडी क्षेत्र से गुजरता है, 2Z रोड तक पहुंचता है और आगे राष्ट्रीय राजमार्ग-58 को पार करके जड़ौदा नाले में मिल जाता है।
बताया जा रहा है कि इस मार्ग पर कई स्थानों पर कॉलोनाइजरों ने रजवाहे को अवरुद्ध कर दिया था, जिससे वर्षों से जल निकासी प्रभावित हो रही थी।
जलभराव की समस्या से राहत मिल सकती है
व्यापारियों का कहना है कि हाईवे की सफाई से मुख्य मार्गों पर जलभराव की समस्या काफी हद तक खत्म हो सकती है। खासकर भोपा रोड, 2जेड रोड और जड़ौदा चौक क्षेत्र में बरसात के दौरान जलभराव की समस्या काफी समय से बनी हुई थी।
रजवाहा के चालू होने से बरसाती पानी की निकासी सुचारू होने की संभावना बढ़ गई है।
उद्योगों को न हो घाटा – फैक्ट्री मालिकों की प्रशासन से अपील
स्थानीय उद्योग संचालकों और व्यापारियों ने सिंचाई विभाग से यह सुनिश्चित करने की अपील की है कि रजवाहे की सफाई के काम के दौरान उद्योगों को कोई नुकसान न हो। उन्होंने सुझाव दिया कि प्रशासन को आपसी समन्वय और संवाद के साथ काम करना चाहिए ताकि विकास कार्यों और औद्योगिक गतिविधियों के बीच संतुलन बना रहे.
फेडरेशन के अध्यक्ष नीलकमल पुरी और कारोबारी राकेश जैन समेत अन्य कारोबारी मौके पर मौजूद रहे और अधिकारियों से इस संबंध में चर्चा की.
सरकारी जमीन और जलमार्गों से अतिक्रमण हटाने की कार्रवाई तेज
राज्य सरकार की ओर से समय-समय पर तालाबों, नालों और सरकारी जमीनों से अवैध कब्जे हटाने के निर्देश जारी किये जाते रहे हैं. इसी क्रम में सिंचाई विभाग ने लंबे समय से बंद पड़े इस रजवाहे की सफाई और पुनरुद्धार का कार्य शुरू कर दिया है।
स्थानीय लोगों का कहना है कि अगर यह काम लगातार चलता रहा तो इलाके की जल निकासी व्यवस्था में स्थायी सुधार हो सकता है.
नई मंडी से संधावली चौक तक औद्योगिक क्षेत्र को फायदा होगा
व्यापारियों के मुताबिक संधावली चौक से जड़ौदा तक कई फैक्ट्रियां स्थित हैं, जो बरसात के दौरान जलभराव से प्रभावित हुई हैं। रजवाहा के शुरू होने से इन इलाकों में जलजमाव की समस्या कम होने की उम्मीद है.
इससे मुख्य राजमार्ग पर जल जमाव की स्थिति में भी सुधार होगा, जिससे यातायात व्यवस्था प्रभावित नहीं होगी.
स्थानीय किसानों और व्यापारियों ने जताई उम्मीद
किसानों का कहना है कि रजवाहा की सफाई से खेतों में पानी की निकासी बेहतर होगी और सिंचाई व्यवस्था को भी अप्रत्यक्ष लाभ मिलेगा. व्यापारियों ने उम्मीद जताई कि प्रशासन इस कार्य को व्यवस्थित ढंग से पूरा करेगा।
अगर रजवाहा पूरी तरह दुरुस्त हो जाए तो क्षेत्र के कई हिस्सों में लंबे समय से चली आ रही जलभराव की समस्या खत्म हो सकती है।
भोपा रोड से 2जेड रोड व जड़ौदा नाले तक वर्षों से बंद पड़े रजवाहे की सफाई शुरू होने से क्षेत्र में जलनिकासी व्यवस्था में सुधार की उम्मीद मजबूत हो गई है। स्थानीय किसानों, व्यापारियों और उद्योग संचालकों ने प्रशासन की इस पहल का स्वागत किया है और उम्मीद जताई है कि काम संतुलित और समन्वित तरीके से पूरा किया जाएगा, ताकि विकास और औद्योगिक गतिविधियां दोनों समान रूप से प्रभावित न हों.
