According to Vishnu Shankar Jain, the Hindu side’s lawyer, the Supreme Court refused to stay the proceedings and scheduled the matter related to the challenge of the transfer order for January 9th. He stated, “The High Court order will persist, and the High Court will proceed with the matter; there is no stay by the Supreme Court.”

During the hearing of a special leave petition challenging a May 2023 order of the High Court, a bench of Justices Sanjiv Khanna and SVN Bhatti declined the plea by the masjid committee. Senior Advocate Huzefa Ahmadi, representing the masjid committee, argued that the High Court, now the trial court, had issued “certain interlocutory orders with an impact on the outcome.”

However, the Supreme Court noted that the High Court order has not been officially contested before it.

Justice Khanna indicated that the case could be considered after the break, and the proceedings are set to resume on January 9. The bench mentioned that if the High Court issues an order in the interim, the mosque committee can approach the Supreme Court.

“I cannot put a hold on the matter without having the order copy in front of me,” Justice Khanna emphasized.

Numerous petitions related to the Idgah complex are awaiting resolution in the Allahabad High Court. The Hindu side asserts that the mosque, built by Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, was constructed by demolishing a temple on 13.37 acres of Lord Krishna’s birthplace.
