Thirty retired Supreme Court and High Court judges took part in a meeting organised by the Hindutva group Vishwa Hindu Parishad’s legal cell on Sunday, The Indian Express reported.

Vishwa Hindu Parishad President Alok Kumar said the topics that came up for discussion were “the collective issues before the society – such as the Waqf Amendment Bill, handing back of temples, handing over of temples under government control, conversions etc”.

Discussions were held “on nationalism and Hindutva” and laws affecting Hindus and cow slaughter were among the other subjects that came up, the organisation’s spokesperson Vinod Bansal was quoted as saying by The Indian Express.

Union Law Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal was also present at the meeting. In a post on X on Sunday evening, he said that he took part in detailed conversations about “topics related to the legal reforms needed to create a developed India”.
