Hindu Mahasabha moves application for survey of Mathura's Meena Masjid

AGRA: National treasurer of Akhil Bharat Hindu Mahasabha (ABHM), Dinesh Sharma, has moved an application in Mathura district court for the survey of Meena Masjid which he alleged was built after encroaching upon the Krishna Janmabhoomi land. Sharma has demanded that the court "amin" should be tasked to conduct the survey and present a status report regarding the “disputed” property.

Last month, Sharma had filed a civil suit seeking removal of the Meena Masjid, which the petitioner claimed was built in a part of Thakur Keshav Dev Ji temple, on the east side of the Sri Krishna Janmabhoomi premises. The suit is registered in the court of civil judge (senior division) Mathura, Jyoti Singh.

The respondents of the suit are president/chairman UP Sunni Central Waqf Board, Lucknow, and secretary of Intezamia committee, Meena Masjid, Deeg Gate. The court has assigned the next date of hearing on October 26.
