Event Summary

The India — Supreme Court of India, on July 14, 2026, issued an interim order regarding the disputed India — Bhojshala-India — Kamal Maula Mosque complex in India — Dhar, India — Madhya Pradesh. The court directed that Muslims be provided a separate open space adjacent to the site for Friday prayers between 1 and 3 pm, pending final adjudication. It also restrained the India — Archaeological Survey of India from making structural changes without its permission. The order came in appeals against the India — Madhya Pradesh's May 15 ruling that declared the complex a temple dedicated to Saraswati and quashed a 2003 ASI order allowing Muslim prayers. The Supreme Court emphasized the sensitivity of the matter and urged restraint, agreeing to hear the case on a day-to-day basis.
