ASI’s appeal dismissed
The appeal and objection of the respondent Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) was dismissed and the Union Ministry of Culture was allowed to be made a respondent after a hearing in the Small Causes Court by Judge Mrityunjay Srivastava on Monday afternoon. Kunwar Ajay Tomar, state president of the Yogi Yuva Brigade, had filed a suit in the court in Savan, demanding that the court grant him permission for Jalabhishek and Dugdhabhishekam of Lord Mahadev in Tejomahalaya. In this case, after the hearing on 13th September, the judge reserved the verdict and gave the date of hearing on 16th September i.e. Monday.
The hearing was held on September 13
In the hearing held on 13th September, advocate Vivek Kumar of the respondent ASI Superintending Archaeologist Dr. Rajkumar Patel raised an objection in the court stating that ASI Superintendent Archaeologist Dr. Rajkumar Patel is a government official who cannot appear in the case. Action has been taken. The ASI had petitioned the court to make the Indian government a defendant in the case. Opposing the case, during the hearing, the Hindu side’s counsel argued in the court that a case can be filed against a government official by serving a notice under Section 80 CPC. After the arguments of both sides in the court, the court reserved the verdict.
