Kashi and Mathura are not instances of Muslim iconoclasm and temple vandalism from some time in the distant past where despotic rulers had no compunctions about targeting Hindus.
These problems are extant today in many parts of the Indian sub-continent.
A Varanasi district court’s order asking the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) to check if there was a destroyed temple under the Gyanvapi mosque has raised liberal and Muslim hackles all around. ....

Sunni board to defend Places of Worship Act, 1991 | India News


AYODHYA: The Uttar Pradesh Sunni Central Waqf Board has vowed to defend the provisions of the Places of Worship (Special Provisions) Act, 1991, within the legal framework, a day after the Supreme Court asked the Centre to respond to a PIL challenging the law which prohibits reclaiming of disputed shrines.
The Sunni Board, which controls 1.3 lakh mosques and mausoleums in UP, has been dragged into legal battles over Kashi’s Gyanvapi masjid and Shahi Eidgah mosque in Mathura, months after the November 2019 Ayodhya verdict. On Saturday, the Board decided to back the mosque committee of Tile Wali Masjid, Lucknow, to move SC against the petition. Talking to TOI, Sunni Waqf Board chairman Zufar Farooqui termed the petition filed by BJP member Ashwini Upadhyay a direct challenge to Supreme Couts’s Ayodhya verdict that upheld the Places of Worship Act while stating it provides confidence to every religious community that their places of worship will be preserved and their charact ....

In a very significant development, the Supreme Court on Friday issued notice to the Centre, on a Public Interest Litigation which challenged the validity of Places of Worship Act 1991 that had provided for maintaining the status quo of religious structures as it existed on August 15, 1947.
The Act had in fact barred litigation on any place of worship for change of its character as existed in 1947, except the Babri Masjid-Ram Janmabhoomi case which was decided in November 2019 by a five-judge bench led by then Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi who ruled in favour of the Hindu side and cleared the decks for the construction of the Ram Mandir at Ayodhya. The masjid sid ....
