The Gujarat High Court has directed local authorities in Dahod district to maintain status quo on the land where the local municipality razed a decades-old Nagina mosque on May 20.
The directive came on a petition filed by the Nagina Mosque Trust which submitted that the mosque and its adjacent structures were demolished without any notice.
The Trust submitted that the mosque and its compound, where some shops were built and were given on rent, all belonged to Wakf property and could not be demolished by the civic body.
