The Supreme Court yesterday banned all unauthorised new and future construction of places of worship on public land and sought strict compliance of its order from the union and state governments.
A bench of Justices Dalveer Bhandari and Mukundkam Sharma also asked various governments to decide the fate of millions of existing unauthorised places of worship on public land 'on case to case basis'.
The bench issued its order after Solicitor General Gopal Subramanian said the union government in consultation with state governments had evolved a consensus that no unauthorised place of worship should be allowed to be built on any public land in the future.
The bench also ordered district magistrates, andu00a0 collectors to report compliance of its order.
