The Muslim side has challenged the maintainability of the case in the Allahabad High Court, but on May 19, the High Court upheld the subordinate court's order permitting a court-monitored survey and directed the trial court to proceed with the hearing.
Advocate Shri Gopal Sharma, appearing for one side, said, “Due to the bar association strike today, the court has fixed August 21 as the next date of hearing.”
