On Thursday, October 17, 2024, a significant hearing over Section 6A of the Citizenship Act took place in the Supreme Court's Constitution Bench. In 1985, a change to the Citizenship Act, intended to advance the Assam Accord, was upheld by a five-judge Constitution Bench of the Supreme Court as being constitutionally legitimate.
Justice JB Pardiwala dissented from the majority decision, which was delivered by Chief Justice DY Chandrachud, Justices Suryakant, MM Sundaresh, and Manoj Mishra.
