The counsel for Shahi Masjid Idgah on Sunday said they will file their objection on January 20 to the district court ord꧃er on the submission of a survey report of Idgah.

Petition seeks removal of mosque
The petitioners had filed the suit seeking shifting of Shahi Masjid Idgah, constructed on a part of the 13.37 acre land of Sri Krishna Janmabhoomi Trust allegedly after the demolition of Katra Kesha🍷v Dev temple by Mughal emperor Aurangzeb. The petitio♊ners claim it is the birthplace of Lord Krishna.
"We will file an objection against the order on January 20," Tanveer Ahmad, secretary and counsel for Shahi Masjid Idgah, s🥀aid on Sunday.
The hearing in the case could not take place on December 22 as the judge was on leave on that day. The 🅺court has now fixed Janua✨ry 20, 2023 as the next date of hearing, when the survey report is to be filed.
"The learned judge had ordered Amin (a term used to refer to a revenue department official) on December 🎀8 to inform both the parties and submit a survey report on the ne🎃xt hearing," the petitioners' counsel Shailesh Dubey had said on Saturday.
The s⛎uit is one of the many pleas demanding the removal of the 17th century Shahi Idgah Masjid from the Katra Keshav Dev temple complex. The "compromise" between Sri Krishna Janmasthan Seva Sansthan and Shahi Masjid Idgah made in 1968 was also challenged in the suit, 𒅌according to lawyers.
