PRAYAGRAJ: The Allahabad high court on Friday dismissed an application by Hindu petitioners asking that the Shahi Eidgah mosque in Mathura be referred to as a “disputed structure” during the legal proceedings on the Krishna Janmabhoomi-Shahi Eid-gah title dispute. The controversy is related to mosque at Mathura, which Hindu groups say was built by emperor Aurangzeb after demolishing a temple at the mythical birthplace of Lord Krishna. THE ALLAHABAD High Court Thursday dismissed a plea that sought to replace the term Shahi Eidgah Masjid’ with ‘disputed structure’ in all court proceedings in the cases related to the Krishna Janmabhoomi-Shahi The court said that at a stage when the hearing was yet to commence and even issues had not been framed, it was not desirable to issue any direction to stenographer, as sought by the application. “A bare perusal of the plead
ing of the parties in the suit reveals that there is dispute be-tween the parties with regard to the site where Shahi Masjid Idgah is existing. Parties have claimed their respective title over suit property. Therefore, it may be termed as property in dispute 15.
