Court-Ordered Survey
On March 11, the Indore Bench of the Madhya Pradesh High Court ordered a survey of Bhojshala in Dhar, similar to the survey conducted at Gyanvapi. The court instructed the ASI to form a team of five experts and submit the report within six weeks. The survey was initially to be completed by April 29, but the timeline was extended when the survey was not finished. Although the report was due on July 2, the ASI requested an additional four weeks, resulting in today's presentation.
Background of the Controversy
The Hindu Front for Justice filed a petition in the Indore High Court on May 1, 2022. The petition stated that Hindus perform Yagya at Bhojshala every Tuesday, while Muslims desecrate the Yagya Kund with Namaz on Fridays. The petition demanded the cessation of these activities and the complete ownership of Bhojshala be transferred to Hindus. It also called for photography, videography, and excavation of the entire Bhojshala. The High Court agreed to the survey based on these points.
Historical Significance Of Bhojshala
Bhojshala, a college established in 1034 AD by Raja Bhoj, ruler of the Parmar dynasty in Dhar from 1000 to 1055 AD, is a site of great importance to the Hindu community. Raja Bhoj, a devout follower of Goddess Saraswati, founded this institution, which has since become a revered place for Hindus.
