A bench headed by Chief Justice U U Lalit will hear the petitions challenging the validity of the CAA. According to the list of businesses uploaded on the apex court's website, Chief Justice and Justice S Ravindra Bhat has posted 220 petitions for hearing, including the main petition of the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) against the CAA.

Under the CAA, there is a provision to give Indian citizenship to non-Muslim migrants who came to India from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan on or before December 31, 2014. Refusing to stay the implementation of the law, the apex court on December 18, 2019, issued notice to the central government on the petitions concerned.
