Gyanvapi Masjid: Another application filed in the Supreme Court, know what is the demand of the petitioner

Posted on 23rd May 2022 by rohit kumar

Another petition has been filed in the Supreme Court in the Gyanvapi Masjid dispute case. Advocate Ashwini Upadhyay has filed this petition. Upadhyay has filed an intervention application in the Supreme Court seeking a party in the Gyanvapi Masjid case. He has also demanded the dismissal of the petition of the Masjid Committee in the petition. He said that a mosque built on temple land cannot be a mosque. He further said in his petition that the religious nature of the temple does not change after the roof, walls, pillars, foundation, and even after offering prayers.

 

He said, 'After the Prana Pratishtha of an idol, a temple is always a temple unless the idol is transferred to another temple with rituals of immersion. Moreover, the place of worship in the temple and the place of prayer in the mosque are both different. Therefore, the same law cannot be applied to both.'

 

'Mosque cannot be on temple land'

 

The petition also said that a mosque built on temple land cannot be a mosque, not only because such construction is against Islamic law, but also because they have the right to the property of the deity. The deities and devotees never perish, no matter how long the illegal occupation of such property continues.

 

The Supreme Court has already asked the District Judge to look into the matter.

 

It should be noted that earlier in the Gyanvapi case, the Supreme Court has said in its order that this matter should now be transferred from the Civil Judge to the District Judge. Now the district judge will decide on the applications related to the case. The District Judge should hear on priority the application of the Muslim side, in which the case of the Hindu side has been declared ineligible for hearing in the light of the Place of Worship Act 1991. The order of May 17 of the Supreme Court will be effective for 8 weeks after the disposal of this application. According to this order of the Supreme Court, the place of Shivling will be kept safe. There will be no problem in prayer. Eight weeks have been given so that any party aggrieved by the order of the District Judge can exercise the option of legal relief.
