The Court was hearing a petition contesting the unlawful construction of two Mazars, one on a road adjacent to Hassanpur Depot and one on Wazirabad Road in Bhajanpura.
The issue surfaced after RTI activist Keshav Dev Sharma filed an RTI with the Municipal Corporation of Aligarh about Jama Masjid. In response, the Municipal Corporation stated that the 300-year-old Jama Masjid in Upperkot was built on public property.
The locals in Uttarakhand held a protest outside a Mazar (tomb) on a public road in Dehradun after a street vendor had allegedly occupied the Mazar to build illegal structures
As per reports, the apex court rejected the CPM's plea, stating that none of the affected parties has been a part of the petition and it is purely political in nature.
