Public opinion on the Mathura Krishna Janmabhoomi-Shahi Idgah Mosque dispute is strongly polarized, with a significant portion calling for reclaiming religious and historical sites perceived as wrongfully taken during historical conquests. Many express nationalistic and religious fervor, demanding justice and restoration based on cultural heritage and historical grievances. There is also significant skepticism about political motives, as some view these religious disputes as a distraction from critical socio-economic issues like unemployment and development. However, calls for communal harmony and peaceful resolution are also present, emphasizing the importance of understanding and addressing historical complexities while avoiding further conflict.

The question should the temple be built or anything else pertaining to the matter is another issue but one fact should remain clear that the Mosque exists because of the Hindu temple Destroyed by Aurangzeb.

More than hindu muslims, the race seems to be there between the devotees.

Shiv is the greatest of them all, people flock benaras, after the grand Ram Mandir is built the prominence of Ayodhya (over a long period of time) will increase. 

With the current Gyanvapi thing, Benaras is defending its position, image how grand gyanvapi/Kailashnath mandir will be, the influence and prominence will be back. 

Mathura devotees too want to get their cup of share.

Thats whats happening.

"deity’s next friend Ranjana Agnihotri"  🤣🤣  

Atheists joke about adults talking to their "imaginary friends". Now our judiciary has gone and legalized that relationship.

Meanwhile, in Hyderabad, one of India's biggest tourist spots and heritage buildings called Char Minar has been encroached by a [temple](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bhagyalakshmi_temple) built in 1960 and the court merely ordered stopping further construction. Maybe one day, Char Minar will meet the fate of Babri Masjid... BHAVYA MANDIR BANEGA!!!!

*****
&gt; Mathura: A Mathura court on Saturday issued notices to the Shahi Idgah Masjid management committee and others, seeking their stands on a fresh plea for the removal of the 17th-century mosque from near the birthplace of Lord Krishna in the Katra Keshav Dev temple complex here.

&gt; Sevayat Shastri has made three demands in his plea; firstly claiming the right to manage the entire 13.37 acres land of the Katra Keshav Dev temple complex, including the land on which the Shahi Idgah mosque stands.

&gt; Shastri has also demanded the annulment of a 1967 ruling of Mathura court which has ratified a land deal between the Shri Krishna Janmasthan Seva Sansthan and Shahi Idgah Management Committee, allowing the existence of the mosque near the temple.

There should be a way to safely remove mosque which were built inside and around temple complexes during the invasions, Just like how the mosque inside Somnath temple was moved out there should be provisions made to shift mosque safely to another location. We can't change history but can surely correct it.

Didn't the Babri ruling say that they won't take up these cases further?

Mark my words: nothing is going to come of it. ram janabhoomi was the brahmastra in bjp's kitty. They aren't going to use another one like this unless they are seriously going to lose another elections. 2024 is already in their pocket. 2029 they might need it or in next up elections. But no real work is going to happen in mathura, kashi etc etc.

Just in time for the Bihar elections. SSR issue lost some steam, and they needed a new one. This is probably it?

&gt;A Civil Court on September 30 dismissed the suit holding that plaintiffs had no right to sue in the matter just because they were devotees of Lord Krishna.

&gt;The suit sought to remove the ‘encroachment’ and superstructure ‘illegally’ raised by the Committee of Management of the alleged Trust Masjid Idgah with the consent of the Sunni Central Board of Waqf on land Khewat No.255 at Katra Keshav Dev city Mathura belonging to the deity Shree Krishna Virajman.

&gt;The plaintiffs stated that Lord Shree Krishna is an incarnation of Lord Vishnu. He took birth in human form on the day of Ashtami in Krishna Paksh in the month of Bhadrapad about 5132 (Five Thousand One Hundred Thirty-Two) years ago in Dwapar Yuga in a prison at Mathura, the place known as Katra Keshav Dev, in Virishni Kingdom ruled by King Kans.

&gt;According to the plaint/suit, Aurangzeb ruled over the country from 31.07.1658 (Thirty-One Seven Sixteen Fifty-Eight) to 3.03.1707 (Three Three Seventeen Zero Seven) AD and he being a staunch follower of Islam had issued orders for the demolition of a large number of Hindu religious places and temples including the temple standing at the birthplace of Lord Shree Krishna at Katra Keshav Dev, Mathura in the year 1669-70 (Sixteen Sixty Nine- Seventy) AD.

&gt;“The army of Aurangzeb partly succeeded to demolish Keshav Dev Temple and construction was forcibly raised showing the might of power and the said construction was named as Idgah Mosque”, the plaint read.

&gt;Uttar Pradesh Sunni Central Waqf Board was arrayed as one of the defendants. As per the suit, Sunni Waqf Board had granted approval to the Committee of Management Trust Masjid Idgah to enter into the compromise dated 12.10.1968, which was illegal and void for the reason that society Shree Krishna Janmasthan Seva Sangh had no right over the property involved in Civil Suit No.43 of 1967 decided by the Civil Judge, Mathura at it was neither owner nor proprietor of the property involved in the said suit situated at Katra Keshav Dev.

&gt;The Committee of the Management of Trust Masjid Idgah was made as Defendant No.2 (Two). The suit stated that this Committee without any authority of law and in utter violation of the decree of the Court with the help of some Muslims put a superstructure and encroached upon the land of Katra Keshav Dev belonging to Shree Krishna Janmasthan Trust and the deity.

&gt;“The committee of the Management of Trust Masjid Idgah entered into illegal compromise on 12.10.1968 (Twelve Ten Nineteen Sixty Eight) with the Society Shree Krishna Janamasthan Seva Sangh and both have played fraud upon the Court, the plaintiff Deities and devotees with a view to capture and grab the property in question”, the suit stated [Source](https://twitter.com/TheLeaflet_in/status/1317087146239422464?s=19) 

Pre 2014, this suit would've been rejected as satire or something but its New India, post 2014, And our lives have become satire in true sense. 

So why not? a new Drama, new war cry and new temple...

Wow this brought up a childhood memory. I visited Mathura in 1993 or 1994. I clearly recall one of the person taking us around saying “Babri toh gir gayi, ab agla number Mathura ka hai”

Supreme Court had settled this. There won’t be a hearing on Kashi and Mathura or any other place. Even the Ram Mandir verdict was flawed and based on assumptions that there existed a human with super powers. All religion is based on that in general but as far as courts go there is no man in the sky controlling the world. You can pray in your toilet for all the court should care.

Long fight ahead. Right now the plea is just admitted, even if a favorable ruling is given, definitely it will be contested in higher courts. It means UP HC needs to uphold it and then no doubt again it will go to supreme court. All this could take decades and who know what the government will be in those times and what will be the final outcome.

If mosque, church and temple would be side to side together it would show the unity in diversity in India, now wake up this is the present not the past.
