There is no provision for executive overturn of a judicial decision. Ask a lawyer or a political science authority who has even an elementary familiarity with the constitution. The Prime Minister certainly has no authority to go contrary to a court decision, and the higher body, the Cabinet, also cannot do anything about it.
Only Parliament can, and that too within the framework of the 'broad structure of the Constitution'. Any legislation beyond that can, and has been struck down by the Supreme Court.
Very recently the UNION CABINET passed an ORDINANCE overruling the Supreme Court Order
on NEET -- Medical entrance exam
This Ordinance was challenged but the Union Government told the Court to BACK OFF
because this sudden order on NEET by the SC had created Chaos and confusion

RESPECTED SIR
It is NOT called Broad Structure -- It is Called BASIC structure of the Constitution
It is a TRINITY of Articles of the Constitution

In the judgement on section 55, Chief Justice Yeshwant Vishnu Chandrachud wrote, "Since the Constitution had conferred a limited amending power on the Parliament, the Parliament cannot under the exercise of that limited power enlarge that very power into an absolute power. Indeed, a limited amending power is one of the basic features of our Constitution and therefore, the limitations on that power can not be destroyed. In other words, Parliament can not, under Article 368, expand its amending power so as to acquire for itself the right to repeal or abrogate the Constitution or to destroy its basic and essential features. The donee of a limited power cannot be the exercise of that power convert the limited power into an unlimited one."[14] The ruling was widely welcomed in India, and Gandhi did not challenge the verdict.[15] In the judgement on Section 4, Chandrachud wrote:
Three Articles of our Constitution, and only three, stand between the heaven of freedom into whichTagore wanted his country to awake and the abyss of unrestrained power. They are Articles 14, 19 and 21.
Article 31C has removed two sides of that golden triangle which affords to the people of this country an assurance that the promise held forth by the preamble will be performed by ushering an egalitarian era through the discipline of fundamental rights, that is, without emasculation of the rights to liberty and equality which alone can help preserve the dignity of the individual.[14]
The Supreme Court adjudicated on the ownership of land. It did not retrospectively condone - it could not have condoned a breach of the law - all the breaches of law that the partisans who were out-of-court supporters of the Hindu litigants committed. Giving a small portion of the land - about one-third - to Ram Lalla does not mean that the previous breaches of law and order were justified. Ask any lawyer.
Only the Allahabad HIGH COURT has passed a Verdict in the Ayodhya Case
The case is PENDING in the Supreme court
The Shah Bano case constituted an appeal to the courts by a Muslim woman. The courts found for her, and against the principles of Muslim Personal Law. Those who had vested interests in Muslim Personal Law then started agitation. Rajiv Gandhi then took to the legislative route, NOT the executive, to counter the court's decision.
What is your Legal Oinion about the CURRENT case in the Supreme Court
where there has been a demand to declare TRIPLE talaq as ILLEGAL
Why is the AIMPLB -- All India Muslim Personal Law Board quaking in their boots
AIMPLB is saying that this is akin to getting Uniform Civil Code by the back door
Some 50000 Muslim Women have become a party to the case
