ISKCON vs ISKCON: Supreme Court to consider setting up Bench to hear review plea on Bengaluru temple
The Supreme Court had allowed the plea of ISKCON Bangalore challenging a Karnataka High Court order that ruled in favour of ISKCON Mumbai over control of the iconic temple and educational complex in Bengaluru
The Supreme Court has agreed to consider setting up a fresh Bench to hear a review plea on the ownership of the Hare Krishna temple in Bengaluru. The dispute centers around whether the temple belongs to ISKCON Bangalore or ISKCON Mumbai. The case originated when ISKCON Bangalore challenged a Karnataka High Court order in favor of ISKCON Mumbai in May 2025.
Later, a split verdict was delivered, with one judge finding that there was an error in the original judgment and another dismissing the review petitions. The Supreme Court has now directed the Chief Justice to issue directions on the matter.
