Bhojshala Dispute: SC Allows Both Worship & Prayer on Basant Panchami; Hindus Demand Full Rights

• The Supreme Court allowed both Hindu and Muslim communities to hold religious events at the Dhar Bhojshala complex on Basant Panchami.
• Hindus are permitted to perform worship, Havan, and Saraswati Vandana from sunrise to sunset.
• Muslims are allowed to offer Namaz from 1 PM to 3 PM in a separate, designated area within the complex.
• Chandrashekhar Tiwari, President of Bhopal Hindu Utsav Samiti, called the decision 'incomplete' and demanded a permanent decision entirely in favor of Hindus.
• RTI activist Ajay Patidar welcomed the decision but emphasized that Hindu faith should not be tampered with and the government must ensure no disturbance during worship.

Why It Matters: Supreme Court's interim decision on Bhojshala allows dual religious events, but Hindu groups seek full rights.
