Mehbooba welcomes Indian SC stay on Nashik dargah demolition

Srinagar: Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) President Mehbooba Mufti has welcomed the Indian Supreme Court’s stay on demolition of Hazrat Saatpeer Sayed Baba Dargah in Nashik.

According to Kashmir Media Service, Mehbooba Mufti said in a post on X said, “The Supreme Court’s stay on the demolition of the Nashik Dargah, a crucial intervention, comes in the wake of the Bombay High Court’s failure to fix a time for hearing the case. This delay created an opening for the local administration to begin demolishing part of the dargah, sparking tensions and clashes in the area.”

The Supreme Court on Friday issued an interim stay on the Nashik civic body’s demolition notice to the dargah and sought a report from the Bombay High Court on non-listing of the shrine’s plea.
