One of the most popular and auspicious festivals of India, Navratri or Durga Pooja is being celebrated in the country since time immemorial. The legend of Navratri and its origin revolves around the mighty demon, Mahishasura who, having obtained the blessing of immortality from lord Shiva started aiming to win Trilokas (Prathvi, Narka, and Swarg). The might of Mahishasur could be imagined by the saying that he had made even the Devine Trinity\/Tridevas (Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva) helpless as only a woman could defeat him.<\/p>\n

To redeem the world from the atrocities of Mahishasura the Trinity created goddess Durga to win over the demon. The battle between goddess Durga and Mahishasur continued for 9 nights, where the devil kept changing his forms to confuse the goddess and at the end of the ninth night, Goddess Durga beheaded Mahishasura and marked her victory over the evil. These nine nights are known as Navratri, while the tenth day is Vijayadashmi, the tenth day that brought the morning of victory.[i]<\/a><\/p>\n

Interestingly, this year the President had appointed 9 Supreme Court Judges, including 3 women. Therefore, to celebrate the Shakti of Women and her remarkable triumph over the devil of patriarchy, we have curated the 9 remarkable judgments from the Supreme Court of the country to the High Courts that strengthen the path of women empowerment:<\/p>\n

1. \u2018Not enough to proudly state that women officers are allowed to serve the nation in the Armed Forces\u2019; Army\u2019s evaluation of Women SSC Officers for grant of permanent commission arbitrary: SC <\/strong><\/p>\n

In major win for women Officer in Indian Army, the division bench of Dr. DY Chandrachud* and MR Shah, JJ has held that the administrative requirement imposed by the Indian Army authorities while considering the case of the Women Short Service Commissions Officers (WSSCO) for the grant of Permanent Commission (PC), of benchmarking these officers with the officers lowest in merit in the corresponding male batch is arbitrary and irrational.<\/p>\n

A Vacation Bench of Ravindra V. Ghuge, J., allowed the petitioner, a transgender person, to contest the panchayat elections from a seat reserved for women candidate.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cIt is quite apparent that the Returning Officer was handicapped insofar as the knowledge of law was concerned while deciding the fate of the nomination form of the petitioner….(and had) opted to reject the form believing that the petitioner can neither be a male nor a female and the ward has been reserved for women general category. There is no ward reserved for the transgender<\/em><\/strong>.\u201d \u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Dias, JJ., addressed the controversial question regarding rights of Muslim women, i.e.\u00a0 Have Muslim women lost their right to invoke extra-judicial divorce, after the coming into force of the Dissolution of Muslim Marriages Act, 1939? The Bench expressed,<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThese cases speak in abundance about the patriarchal mind-set followed in the Society for decades depriving Muslim women their right to invoke extra-judicial divorce.

\n

\u201cThe continued actions on the part of the respondents in perpetuating discrimination against persons like the petitioner only for the reason that she was born with the characteristic of a gender which did not match her self-perceived gender identity amounts to violation of the petitioner\u2019s valuable rights guaranteed under Article 14, 15, 19 and 21 of the Constitution of India.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
