ON grounds similar to the Gyanvapi mosque survey in Varanasi, a plea was filed in a district court in Mathura asking for the survey of another mosque which shares some area with the Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi, which was agreed to. A Mathura court in Uttar Pradesh on May 19 finally allowed the plea seeking removal of the Shahi Idgah Masjid, which is claimed to be built on the Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi sthal to be filed. District Judge Rajeev Bharti overturned a civil court order that had dismissed the plea. The Court in its order said that the plea to remove the Shahi Idgah Masjid on the ground that it was built over Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi land is maintainable. The plaintiffs, in this case, asked for a claim on 13.37 acres of land on the ground that it was the birthplace of Lord Krishna. The verdict in the Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi-Shahi Idgah Masjid dispute case was earlier reserved by a court on May 5.
The Mathura Civil Court had on September 30, 2020, refused to admit a plea seeking removal of the Masjid adjacent to Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi in Mathura. The Court dismissed the plea on the ground that the Places of Worship (Special Provisions) Act, 1991, had exempted litigation over ownership in the disputed Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid case, but had barred any other court from entertaining litigation that would seek to alter the status quo of a religious place as it existed in 1947.

Till Infertility Do Us Part...

IS THAT LEGAL?
Ignorance of law is no excuse. Here are answers to frequently asked queries regarding matters that affect us on a day-to-day basis
The Big Lie
In America, The Big Lie is an idiom used by Donald Trump's opponents and the media to describe his constant gripe about election fraud. Now, it seems more suited to another Republican, Congressman George Santos (right), who has been facing growing calls to resign after he admitted fabricating parts of his resume and biography since his election in New York last year.
Flying into the Sunset
Over 50 years since the first and original jumbo jet, the Boeing 747, took to the skies and revolutionized air travel, the last of the legendary aircraft (right) was delivered to a freight charter company, bringing down the curtain on one of aviation's most successful products.
Star Crossed
Actor and producer Alec Baldwin is a Hollywood legend, having starred in a range of movies, award winning TV sitcoms, and theatre. He was most recently seen in Mission Impossible Fallout, which is an apt description of his current situation.
Walkouts in the UK
An estimated half a million workers have gone on strike, shutting down thousands of schools, public transport and border disruption. It is the biggest day of industrial action for more than a decade.
Myanmar's Misery
Two years after the military coup ousted the elected government led by Aung San Suu Kyi, the brutal crackdown by the junta on so-called \"insurgents\" and civilian protesters has reached a new level with the use of air strikes, a new and deadly tactic in the ongoing civil war.
AMERICA'S ANGST
From messy, divisive politics to a series of mass shootings, and now black officers brutally beating another black man to death as seen in bodycam videos, America's domestic convulsions are cause for serious introspection
JUSTICE LEAGUE
There are few judicial appointment procedures in the world that are completely bereft of the overarching presence of either the executive or the legislature, or both. In the end, the judge is left with all the powers vested in him/her by the constitution to uphold the rule of law, within an atmosphere of external influences
