India News: All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) plans to move the Supreme Court after Varanasi district court's decision to allow 'puja' in a cellar of Gyanvapi mosque. AIMPLB, along with other prominent Muslim organisations, will approach President Droupadi Murmu and write to CJI D Y Chandrachud. They demand the implementation of the Places of Worship Act, 1991 to prevent disputes in the country.
The Allahabad High Court refused to grant interim stay on the Varanasi district court s order allowing puja inside the Gyanvapi mosque cellar. The HC directed the state government to maintain law and order. The mosque committee had not challenged the January 17 order appointing the district magistrate as receiver. Muslim shopkeepers observed a bandh in protest, while the AIMPLB alleged bias by the judiciary. The AIMPLB will challenge the order in the Supreme Court and seek a meeting with the president.
