Ajmer Sharif or dargah of Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti or Gharib Nawaz in Ajmer is claimed to be a Lord Shiva Temple. The dargah received notification On 27 November 2024. It started with a local court in Ajmer accepting the petition from Hindu Sena chief Vishnu Gupta. The petitioner claimed that the shrine was built over the debris of a Hindu Temple.
Civil Judge Manmohan Chandel issued notices to the Dargah Committee, the Ministry of Minority Affairs, and the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) on the plea seeking to declare the Dargah a temple. The petition at large disturbed the Hindu-muslim harmony. The tension in the country was already prevailing with the issues revolving around Shahi Eidgah, Gyan Vapi Masjid, and Babri Masjid (now where Ram Temple is already built). The Ajmer dargah is the place where even Hindu fundamentalist leaders offer or send ‘chadars’. Leaders such as such as Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Narendra Modi, and others are often reported to have paid respects by offering chadars at the dargah.
The petition was based on the book ‘Ajmer: Historical and Descriptive’, by Har Bilas Sarda which narrates the tradition says that inside the cellar is the image of Mahadeva in a temple. The petition claimed that the dargah be declared a Hindu temple and its registration should be canceled. The petitioner demanded an ASI survey to be conducted.
Syed Sarwar Chishty, secretary of the Anjuman Moinia Fakhria, a body representing the dargah's hereditary caretakers calls these claims baseless. Ajmer Munsif criminal and civil (west) court will next hear Hindu Sena’s civil suit on Dec 20.
