Malankara Church members move Kerala High Court against consecration of new Catholicos
The petitioners alleged that the Patriarch of Antioch has not been canonically invited for the consecration of the new Catholicos which goes against the Supreme Court judgment in the KS Varghese case.
Parishioners of St. Mary’s Syrian Orthodox Cathedral at Piravom, which was previously with the erstwhile Jacobite faction, have approached the Kerala High Court seeking to prevent the consecration of new catholicos of the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church to which the Patriarch of Antioch has not been canonically invited (KA John & Anr v. State of Kerala & Ors.).
