Mathura Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi Shahi Idgah Dispute
In the Mathura Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi Shahi Idgah Dispute Case, the Supreme Court on Friday expressed reluctance to interfere with the order of the Allahabad High Court to club all suits relating to the matter.
The top court slated the matter for further hearing on April 1.
During the hearing of the case, the bench of Chief Justice of India Sanjeev Khanna asked the lawyer appearing for the petitioner as to why there should be interference on the issue of simultaneous hearing of all the cases.
On which the lawyer appearing for the petitioner said that cases of dissimilar nature should not be heard together. This will create complications.
CJI Khanna said that there is no complication. The court said that it will benefit both parties as many proceedings can be avoided.
The court said that if necessary, it will take up this matter later.
