Sabarimala is a Hindu temple in Kerala, India, dedicated to the deity Ayyappan. The temple is known for its strict rules regarding entry, which traditionally prohibited women of menstruating age (generally considered to be between the ages of 10 and 50) from entering the Sabarimala temple. This rule was the subject of much controversy and legal challenges in recent years, with the Supreme Court of India ruling in 2018 that the ban on women’s entry was unconstitutional and discriminatory.
