This PIL requested the Supreme Court of India to completely curb the unhealthy practice of dedicating minor virgin girls to Uttangi Mala Durga Temple ar Harappanahalli Taluk of Devanagar District, Karnataka where they were then sold to brothels on 13^th February every year. This is an outright social injustice, where minor girls are manipulated and sold to brothels for prostitution, in the name of deity pleasing.

The Court was of verdict that such practices must be immediately banned and strong vigilance should be set out on 13^th and 14^th February every year. The girls would be given counselling and rehabilitation as necessary.

Sabu Steephen v. UOI, WPC 805/2015

This PIL aims to seek approval from the Supreme Court of India for the termination of stray dogs from the streets. The petition contains that the complete eradication of stray dogs will decrease the spread of rabies and also injuries and deaths caused by stray dogs. It quotes a section from Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act which states that destruction of stray dogs in gas chambers is not cruelty. While this petition is still pending, if the judgement comes in favour of the petition the menace caused by stray dogs will come to an end.

Sabu Steephen v. UOI, WPC 149/2017

The PIL petition which sought the removal of these Acts and its provisions was held by the Supreme Court to be enacted.

Sabu Steephen v. UOI, WPC 751/2020

1. For the constitution of a Dowry Prohibition Officer in every Government/public     office.
2. That any dowry or share made must be created only under the woman’s name at   least for the first 7 years and this must be entered in the Register by the   concerned officers.
