Chandrachud and comprising Justice J.B. Pardiwala. Ahmadi requested the court to take up the matter soon citing the month of Ramzan, which is regarded holy by the believers and submitted that the court had passed an order in the matter and the area was sealed, and the bathrooms behind it were also sealed. The bench said the matter is coming later this month and it could list the plea along with it. Ahmadi requested for an earlier date to hear the matter. The bench asked Ahmadi to file an interlocutory application in this regard and it will take it up on April 14.
