Supreme Court's nine-judge bench held that larger questions of law can be framed by a review bench. The apex court framed issues in gender and faith cases. The nine-judge bench frames seven questions for arguments on the larger issue of faith vs fundamental right clash. It framed questions on the basis of issues that arose from the controversy over women's entry to Sabarimala, mosque and agiyari as well as the practice of female genital mutilation among Dawoodi Bohras.
