SC allows Basant Panchami worship, Friday namaz at MP’s Bhojshala complex
NEW DELHI: In a significant order passed on Thursday, the Supreme Court directed that both Basant Panchami worship and Friday namaz be permitted at the disputed Bhojshala Temple-Kamal Maula Mosque complex in Dhar district of western Madhya Pradesh.
A Bench headed by Chief Justice of India (CJI) Surya Kant was hearing an urgent plea filed by the Hindu Front for Justice (HFJ), which sought exclusive rights for Hindus to perform Saraswati Puja throughout the day on Basant Panchami, falling on Friday, January 23.
Laying down specific arrangements to enable both communities to perform their respective religious observances, the Bench, also comprising Justices Joymalya Bagchi and Justice Vipul M. Pancholi, ordered that namaz may be offered between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. at a separately demarcated space within the premises.
