SC halts opening of well near Sambhal mosque
Hindustan TimesThe Supreme Court on Friday restrained the Uttar Pradesh government and Sambhal district administration from acting on a municipal notice to open for public use a well, half of which is located within the structure of the Shahi Jama Masjid and the other half outside it. The top court’s ruling is in keeping with the December order of a bench headed by CJI Khanna that restrained all courts across India from entertaining fresh suits or passing orders to survey mosques to determine whether temple structures lie beneath them. During the Friday hearing, senior advocate Huzefa Ahmadi, representing the mosque management committee, referred to the Sambhal civic body’s notice of December 14 regarding the well, urging the court to issue orders to the district administration not to take any steps with regard to the probe of the well, and open the well, constructed outside the structure without due permission from this court. We remember we had asked them to go to the high court, but we wanted to keep a close watch to ensure violence doesn’t take place and peace and harmony are maintained.” The dispute gained momentum after violence erupted during the court-ordered survey of the Shahi Jama Masjid on November 24, 2024.
