The Delhi High Court has ordered the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) to maintain status quo till February 12 on the land on which the 600-year-old mosque in Mehrauli was recently demolished.
The order was passed by the single-judge Bench of Justice Sachin Datta, while dealing with an urgent application filed by the Managing Committee of Delhi Waqf Board.
However, the High Court clarified that the status quo order was passed only with respect to the khasra number where the mosque was situated and will not act as a bar on DDA to carry out action on adjoining areas.
