On 2nd May, The ongoing Krishna Janmabhoomi-Shahi Idgah dispute involves the Hindu side presenting arguments to recognize the temple as a protected monument under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Sites and Remains Act, 1958. The Allahabad High Court is addressing concerns regarding the suit’s maintainability, with the next hearing scheduled for May 7 for the Muslim side’s arguments.
The Hindu side asserts that the deity was not involved in the compromise or court decree in the Krishna Janmabhoomi-Shahi Idgah dispute at the Allahabad High Court. They argue against the applicability of the Waqf Act and emphasize the property’s historical and religious significance. The legal battle continues.
The Hindu side Today (April 30th) countered the argument presented by the Muslim side in the Krishna Janmabhoomi-Shahi Idgah dispute at Mathura in the Allahabad High Court. They asserted that the provisions of the Waqf Act would not be applicable as the disputed property is not categorized as waqf property.
A lawyer has filed a PIL to rename Allahabad High Court as “High Court of Uttar Pradesh,” citing the colonial legacy of naming high courts after cities. The petition seeks official recognition and alignment with the state it serves. It also addresses jurisdictional concerns between the court’s benches in Lucknow and Prayagraj. The move reflects a broader dialogue about decolonization and legal identity in post-independence India.
The Allahabad High Court Today (March 22nd) declared the Uttar Pradesh Board of Madarsa Education Act, 2004 unconstitutional and a violation of secularism. The court directed the government to accommodate madrasa students into the formal education system. This decision will lead to the ceasing of government financial aid to madrasas and their eventual abolition.
The counsel for the Shahi Idgah managing committee argued in the Allahabad High Court today that the suit seeking the removal of the mosque is constrained by the statute of limitations. The Muslim side cited a compromise dating back to 1968, stating the suit filed in 2020 is beyond the three-year limit to challenge a compromise. The High Court set March 13 as the next hearing date. The case involves a dispute over Waqf property. The Waqf Act allows the Waqf Boards in India to claim unlimited powers over properties without recourse to legal challenge, raising questions in the context of a secular country. Waqf Board holds over 8,54,509 properties encompassing more than eight lakh acres of land, with powers to acquire and declare ownership without need for proof. The controversy surrounding the Waqf Act and the dispute over the mosque illustrates the complexities of religious property laws in India, provoking debate about the Act’s constitutionality.
