Pleas over character of places of worship dot U.P.’s legal landscape

Hindustan Times  

A special bench of the Supreme Court headed by Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna will on December 12 hear a raft of pleas challenging the Places of Worship Act, 1991. Sambhal, Shahi Jama Masjid Supreme Court advocate Vishnu Shankar Jain on November 19 filed a petition in a local court in Sambhal, seeking a survey of the town’s Shahi Jama Masjid. A Varanasi district court in July 2023 ordered an extensive survey of the mosque by ASI to ascertain its antecedents and concluded that a Hindu temple existed before the construction of the Masjid. Lucknow, Teele Wali Masjid In 2013, lawyer Hari Shankar Jain filed a petition demanding a survey of the Teele Wali Masjid in Old Lucknow, accusing the shrine’s administration of destroying evidence which would prove that the mosque was built over a Hindu religious site. Agra, Shahi Masjid A local court in Agra will on December 23 hear an application seeking a survey of the Shahi Masjid at the Agra Fort, on an application moved by a Hindu activist.
