Mathura court rejects civil suit demanding removal of mosque near Lord Krishna birthplace

Mathura, Sep 30 (UNI) A local court here on Wednesday rejected the civil suit filed in the court here last week for the removal of the Shahi Eidgah Mosque near the Shree Krishna Janambhoomi
Civil Judge, senior division , Chaya Sharma rejected the plea after hearing the petitioners saying that the civil suit did not have any merit.
However the petitioners said that they will now approach the Allahabad high court to press their demand .
During the hearing the judge asked the police and district authorities to ensure fool proof security at the Shree Krishns Janambhoomi.
A group of lawyers had moved a civil suit in the court here on Friday last for removal of a mosque claiming that it was allegedly built on orders of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb in 1669-70 at the exact birthplace of Lord Sree Krishna within the 13.37-acre premises of Katra Keshav Dev temple in the holy city.
The petition also demanded the annulment of a 1968 Mathura court ruling, ratifying a land deal reached between the Shree Krishna Janmasthan Seva Sansthan and Shahi Idgah Management Committee, perpetuating the existence of the mosque within the temple premises.
The petition was filed by Lucknow resident and lawyer Ranjana Agnihotri and seven others, including Delhi resident Parvesh Kumar, Rajesh Mani Tripathi of Siddharth Nagar in Uttar Pradesh, Karunesh Kumar Shukla of Basti, and Shivaji Singh and Tripurari Tiwari, both of Lucknow.
Supreme Court lawyer Vishnu Shankar Jain in a petition filed in a Mathura court on Friday said that the agreement between Sree Krishna Janmasthan Seva Sansthan and Shahi Idgah Management Committee in 1968 is completely wrong and should be repealed.
Mr Jain said that the land on which the mosque is built is in the name of Shri Krishna Janmasthan Trust. In such a situation, the agreement made by the Seva Sangh is wrong.
"Therefore, by repealing the said agreement, a demand has been made to remove the mosque and return the temple land to it, "he demanded.
