SC adjourned Mathura's Krishna Janambhoomi Land Dispute Hearing to November 10

Today, the Supreme Court of India adjourned the matter for November 10 relating to Mathura's Krishna Janambhoomi land dispute.

The matter was heard before the division bench of Justices Sanjay Kishan Kaul and Sudhanshu Dhulia.

Earlier,  Supreme Court directed the registrar of the Allahabad High Court to provide information regarding the cases being handled by the court concerning the land dispute case.

The Committee of Management Trust Shahi Masjid Idgah lodged an appeal in the Supreme Court, challenging the decision of the Allahabad High Court, which had transferred all the petitions related to the Mathura's Krishna Janambhoomi land dispute from the District Court in Mathura, Uttar Pradesh to itself.

The plea was moved by Committee of Management Trust Shahi Masjid Idgah through advocate RHA Sikander.

The High Court approved the transfer application, even though the proceedings in the case from which the transfer application originated had been halted by a concurrent bench of the High Court of Judicature at Allahabad, as per an order issued on August 3, 2022.

"The impugned judgement is passed on a mere ipse dixit by indulging in the prophecy of the respondents No. 1 to 8 that 'in case the trial court itself decides the suit, it will take a long time without even considering that the suit was registered only on May 26, 2022, and the proceedings therein were subsequently stayed by a Coordinate Bench of the High Court of Judicature at Allahabad vide Order dated August 3, 2022, which remained in force till May 1, 2023," read the petition.

Till now, nine cases have been filed in Mathura Court in the cases of Shri Krishna Janambhoomi and Shahi Idgah Masjid. Ranjana Agnihotri, a resident of Lucknow, had filed a suit demanding the ownership of 13.37 acres of land owned by Shri Krishna Janambhoomi.

In her legal suit, Agnihotri demanded the removal of the Shahi Idgah mosque built in Krishna Janambhoomi.

The lawsuit filed in the Mathura court aimed to have a mosque, reportedly constructed in 1669-70 under the directive of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, removed from the 13.37-acre grounds of the Katra Keshav Dev temple, situated in proximity to the birthplace of Lord Krishna.
