NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court has expedited the hearing date to December 1 for a petition challenging the prohibition on offering prayers in the Mughal Mosque located in the Mehrauli area.
The managing committee of the Mughal Mosque, appointed by the Delhi Waqf Board, had filed a petition in the high court last year, alleging that officials from the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) abruptly and unlawfully halted the practice of namaz (Islamic prayers) in the mosque on May 13, 2022.
