The Allahabad High Court on Thursday approved the conduct of a scientific survey on the Shahi Idgah complex at Mathura.
In Mathura's Krishna Janmabhoomi land dispute, Supreme Court refuses to put on hold order approving the survey of the Shahi Idgah on the disputed land. Hindu outfits have claimed the mosque was built on the birthplace of Lord Krishna and had demanded a survey. The demand was admitted by a local court in December last year but the Muslim side had filed an objection in the High Court.
In a groundbreaking decision yesterday, the Allahabad High Court approved the conduct of a scientific survey on the Shahi Idgah complex at Mathura.
The court on Thursday appointed an advocate commissioner and gave in-principle approval for surveying the Shahi Idgah complex. The modalities of the Commission of advocates for the survey will be decided on December 18.
