Days after a lawsuit was filed in a Mathura court seeking to “claim” the entire Krishna Janmabhoomi, AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi said on Saturday (September 27) that the dispute between Shri Krishna Janmasthan Seva Sangh and Shahi Idgah Trust was solved in 1968 and there It makes no sense to revive this problem now.
“The Places of Worship Act 1991 prohibits the conversion of a place of worship. The Ministry of the Interior is in charge of the administration of this law, what will your response be in court? Shahi Idgah Trust and Sri Krishna Janmasthan Seva Sangh resolved their dispute in October 1968. Why relive it now? ”Owaisi tweeted.

“It is a fact and story that Aurangzeb ruled the country from 1658-1707 AD and, being a staunch follower of Islam, had issued orders for the demolition of a large number of Hindu religious sites and temples, including the temple found in the birthplace of Lord Shree Krishna at Katra Keshav Dev, Mathura in AD 1669-70, “the lawsuit read.
“The Aurangzeb army managed in part to demolish the Keshav Dev Temple and the construction was forcibly erected showing the power of power and the construction was named Idgah Mosque,” he added.
