The Devbhoomi Sangharsh Samiti has stated that it will not allow Friday prayers at the Sanjauli mosque, which a court has declared illegal. It also urged the Muslim community not to visit the site to maintain communal harmony.
Samiti members, who have been protesting in Sanjauli for the past 10 days, also performed Shastra Puja (weapon worship) on Thursday as part of their agitation.
Vijay Sharma, the co-convener of the samiti, said the group is waiting for the November 29 meeting with the administration. He said they will decide their next step after the meeting.
“If the meeting does not bring positive results, we will intensify our agitation against the mosque,” he said.
Sharma claimed that prayers are still being offered at the structure despite a court order declaring it illegal and directing its demolition. He called the situation “very unfortunate.”
