On a plea filed by the Harkat Peer Malik Rehan Mira Saheb Durga against directive issued by the deputy director of archaeology to prohibit animal slaughter within the fort 's premises, Justices Neela Gokhale and Firdosh Pooniwalla passed the order.
The court observed that a similar plea had been allowed in June 2024. It, therefore, allowed the present application as well on the same terms and all conditions imposed in the June 2024 order would apply to both the petitioners and devotees.
The permission extends not only to the Dargah Trust but also to devotees participating in the religious observances.
In order passed last year, the High Court had stipulated that any sacrifice must occur only in a closed and private area, specifically Gate No. 19, which is privately owned by Shri Mubarak Usman Mujawar - and not in open or public spaces.
