We have approached the Supreme Court demanding that the case regarding the survey which is in the district court should be stopped and the case should be heard in the Supreme court..."
Further, he said that the place of worship act should be used properly.
"The Place of Worship Act should be used properly. A petition has also been filed over the Ajmer dargah as well. When will this stop?.. Saying that Babar Sahab broke the temple and built the mosque is wrong. There was already a mosque there since a very long time... Why are a few selected people being given a chance to disturb the atmosphere?" he added.
UP Deputy CM KP Maurya said that the state government would ensure that law and order prevail in the city.
"The government follows the orders given by the Supreme Court. Samajwadi Party does the work to violate the SC orders. I advise goons and rioters of the Samajwadi Party to not disturb the atmosphere else their party will sink," he said.
This comes after a stone pelting incident took place in Sambhal during the ASI examination of the Mughal-era mosque, resulting in the death of four people and injuries caused to several other locals and police officials.
Police and security personnel had been deployed in the district to ensure there were no signs of violence and namaz was offered properly at the Shahi Jama Masjid.
