Mathura Court Ordered Survey Of Shahi Idgah Mosque From Jan 2

Mathura/Hyderabad, Dec 24 (Maxim News): Mathura district court, today, ordered the survey of the Shahi Idgah mosque, which is said to be built on the birthplace of Lord Krishna by the Archaeological Survey of India from January 2. The report will be submitted on January 20.

The court passed the order on a lawsuit filed by Vishnu Gupta of the Hindu Sena, demanding the removal of the 17th century Shahi Idgah masjid from the Katra Keshav Dev temple, claiming that the mosque has been built on the birthplace of Lord Krishna.

The Shahi Idgah mosque was reportedly built on Krishna janmabhoomi on the orders of the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb in 1669.70.

The Civil Court in Mathura had earlier dismissed the case saying it cannot be admitted under the Places of Worship Act of 1991, which maintains the religious status of any place of worship as it was on August 15, 1947. The only exception to the law was the Ayodhya temple-mosque case involving the 16th-century Babri mosque, razed in 1992 by Hindu activists who believed it was built on the ruins of an ancient temple. The Supreme Court 2019 handed over the mosque site to Hindus for a grand Ram temple and ordered alternative land for a mosque.

The petitioners argued in their suit that as devotees of Lord Krishna, they have a right to approach the court. They say they have the right to worship at the actual birthplace of Krishna. (Maxim News)
