The Lucknow seat of the Allahabad High Court on Thursday excused a supplication looking for headings to open 20 rooms of the Taj Mahal in Agra to check for the conceivable presence of Hindu symbols or sacred texts, Bar and Bench revealed.

“Tomorrow you will come and request us to go to chambers from noteworthy adjudicators,” the two-judge seat of Justices DK Upadhyay and Subhash Vidyarthi reproached the applicant. “Kindly, don’t make a joke of the PIL [public interest litigation] framework.”

Mughal ruler Shah Jahan had appointed the development of the Taj Mahal in 1632 and the task was done in 1653. In any case, some Hindutva pseudo-antiquarians have propounded the hypothesis that the tomb pre-dated Shah Jahan and was constructed well before Muslim rule started in India.

In his appeal, Singh had looked for headings from the court to the Archeological Survey of India to comprise a reality tracking down council and to “search for significant authentic proof” like icons and engravings accepted to be concealed in the Taj Mahal.

“I invite you to discuss the issue with us in the drawing room and not in that frame of mind of regulation,” the adjudicators said while excusing the request.

The adjudicators saw that the solicitor had moved toward the court to give decision on a “totally non-justiciable issue”, Live Law announced.

The court additionally protested the solicitor’s contention that he had documented applications under the Right to Information Act. The specialists had answered him saying that the rooms in Taj Mahal are locked because of safety reasons.

“What are you looking for is investigation of realities via a panel,” the court expressed, as per Bar and Bench. “That is none of your freedoms and it’s not under the ambit of RTI Act.”
