The legal controversy over the Bhojshala complex in Dhar district has resurfaced, with the Hindu petitioners asserting that the site is not a Waqf property.
They argued before the Madhya Pradesh High Court that the complex is a temple dedicated to Goddess Saraswati, not a mosque, as claimed by the Muslim community.
The case hinges on historical records and archaeological findings, with both sides presenting evidence to justify their claims over the 11th-century monument.
