| Summary: | The elevation of the Syro-Malabar Church to major archiepiscopal rank with a common hierarchical head necessitated by the provisions of Code of Canons of the Eastern Churches (CCEO) has armed this apostolic Church to govern itself with the rightful autonomy it deserves. The establishment and effective functioning of the canonical structures corresponding to the new hierarchical and canonical status has helped this Church sui iuris to achieve significant growth in the exercise of legislative, executive and judicial power of governance. These remarkable achievements within a short span of quarter a century is a clear proof that it has the potential and vibrancy to be promoted to patriarchal status which is the traditional form of governance in the Eastern Catholic Churches. |
