What is the place of worship law?
There was a provision in the Places of Worship Act of 1991 in the country that the religious places would be maintained in the same form as they were at the time of independence. The Places of Worship Act is a law that prohibits changing the character of any place of worship that existed on 15 August 1947. To end the dispute over the ownership rights of religious places, the Congress government led by the then Prime Minister PV Narasimha Rao had made the only exception in this law for the decades-long Ramjanmabhoomi-Babri Masjid dispute. Section 3 of this law prohibits individuals and groups of people from converting, in whole or in part, a place of worship of any religious sect into a place of worship of a different religious sect.
