Today, on November 5th, the Supreme Court of India reviewed the Krishna Janmabhoomi-Shahi Eidgah Mosque dispute, scheduling a follow-up in two weeks. Both parties must submit arguments on suit maintainability following a dispute over a 1968 agreement regarding the mosque’s existence. The court will examine the applicability of the Letters Patent Appeal Act amid objections from the Mosque Committee, with historical and religious implications at stake.
The Supreme Court dismissed a petition challenging an Allahabad High Court order in the Krishna Janmabhoomi-Shahi Eidgah Mosque case as “infructuous.” The High Court had ordered ex-parte proceedings against the Mosque Committee, which sought to reject claims by Hindu worshippers. The case involves a long-standing dispute over the mosque’s legitimacy and the right to worship at the site.

The Allahabad High Court reserved its verdict on the Krishna Janmabhoomi-Shahi Idgah mosque dispute, challenging the legality of the suits filed. The lawsuits seek the removal of the mosque, claiming it stands on the site of a demolished temple. The Muslim side argues that the suits are time-barred and should be dismissed. Senior advocate Manish Goyal has been appointed as amicus curiae in the matter, and the court is yet to address several issues.
The Hindu petitioners on Monday in the Krishna Janmabhoomi-Shahi Idgah dispute argue that the Places of Worship Act does not apply to a disputed structure. They challenge the 1968 compromise and maintain that the suit is maintainable and that evidence needs to be presented. The lawsuit also revisits historical claims about the mosque’s existence. The legal and historical complexities are becoming more evident as the court postpones further discussions.
