"Sensitive issue, matter of investigation": BJP MP Ravi Kishan on Ajmer Dargah row

New Delhi [India], November 28 (ANI): Amid the Ajmer Dargah row, BJP MP Ravi Kishan on Thursday called it a "sensitive matter" and said that the investigation will be conducted and facts will be presented.
"It is a sensitive matter. If the court has accepted the plea, then we should not comment on this matter. It has become a matter of investigation...So, the investigation will be conducted and facts will be presented," Kishan told ANI outside Parliament during the ongoing Winter Session.
Earlier, a Rajasthan court accepted a petition submitted by the Hindu Sena claiming Ajmer Sharif Dargah to be Lord Shiva's temple.
All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM) MP Asaduddin Owaisi targeted the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) following the recent controversy regarding Ajmer Sharif Dargah in Rajasthan.
Owaisi highlighted the history of the dargah and said that previous Prime Ministers from Jawaharlal Nehru have sent "chadars" to the dargah.
"The dargah has been there for the last 800 years. At that time, the Mughals were ruling. Emperor Akbar erected many things there. Then Marathas came to rule Later, Ajmer was sold to the British for Rs 18,000. When Queen Elizabeth visited in 1911, they constructed a water house there. Prime Ministers starting from Nehru have been sending 'Chadar' to the dargah. PM Modi too sends 'Chadar' there. Why have BJP-RSS spread this hatred regarding mosques and dargahs?" Owaisi remarked.
Vishnu Gupta, President of the National Hindu Army, who filed a case claiming a Lord Shiva temple within Ajmer's Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti Dargah shrine on Wednesday, said that the court has admitted their case and the next hearing will be on December 20.
"The court admitted our case and issued notices to the Dargah Committee, the Ministry of Minority Affairs, and the Archaeological Survey Department. The next date of hearing is 20th December," Vishnu Gupta said.
Earlier on Wednesday, a local court in Ajmer directed that notice be issued to three parties in a civil suit that claims that there is a Shiva temple in the dargah of Sufi saint Moinuddin Chishti in Ajmer, the plaintiff's advocate said.
Advocate Yogesh Siroja told reporters in Ajmer that the suit was heard in the court of Civil Judge Manmohan Chandel.
"The concerned parties have been issued notices, one is the Dargah Committee, the ASI, and the third is the Ministry of Minority Affairs. I am a descendant of Khwaja Moinuddin Chishty, but I have not been made party to it... We are in touch with our legal team," he said.
Syed Naseruddin Chishty, Chairman of the All India Sufi Sajjadanashin Council, criticised the rise in incidents where various groups are staking claim to mosques and dargahs.
"These incidents are on the rise in the country. Every second day we see groups claiming mosques and dargahs. This is not in the interest of our society and country. Today, India is becoming a global power. Till when will we remain stuck in the temple and mosque controversy?" he said. (ANI)
