Mathura: Why Three Shops Inside Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi Complex Are Not Protected by UP Rent Law

Prayagraj/Mathura:The Allahabad High Court has dismissed the petitions filed by tenants claiming rights over three shops located inside the Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi complex in Mathura, ending a legal dispute that has dragged on for more than 25 years. The court ruled that since the property belongs to a public religious and charitable trust, the Uttar Pradesh Rent Control Act does not apply to these shops.

As a result, the shopkeepers will now have to vacate the premises, failing which they may be formally evicted. The High Court also directed the lower court to dispose of the remaining two pending cases within two months. How the...
