New Delhi: Another plea challenging the Constitutional validity of certain sections of the Places of Worship (Special Provisions) Act 1991 has been filed in the Supreme Court on Saturday stating that the said Act violates the principles of secularism.
The religious guru Devkinandan Thakur has challenged the constitutional validity of Sections 2, 3, and 4 of the Places of Worship (Special Provisions) Act 1991, stating that it offends Articles 14, 15, 21, 25, 26, 29 of the Indian constitution and violates the principles of secularism and the rule of law, which is an integral part of the Preamble and basic structure of the Constitution.
It is a fourth petition, filed within a week, which challenges the constitutional validity of the Places of Worship Act 1991.
In the plea filed by Devkinand Thakur, it has been said Hindus are fighting for the restoration of the birthplace of Lord Krishna for hundreds of years and peaceful public agitation continues but while enacting the Act, the Centre has excluded the birthplace of Lord Ram at Ayodhya but not the birthplace of Lord Krishna in Mathura, though both are the incarnations of Lord Vishnu, the creator.
Before Thakur, BJP leader and advocate Ashwini Upadhyay had also challenged the constitutional validity of the act.
