Idgah mosque in Sri Krishna birth place
Sri Krishna Janmabhoomi, the birthplace of Lord Krishna, is one of the holiest places in all of India, on the banks of the Yamuna River, less than 150 km from Delhi. More than a mere tourist attraction, Krishna Janmabhoomi is the main destination for Krishna devotees and pilgrims from all over the world who come here to worship their beloved God.
The site of the Krishna Janmabhoomi temple complex is around the area of the prison of King Kansa, in which Krishna appeared as the son of Mother Devaki. The first temple to appear at this site was built by Vajranabh, the great-grandson of Lord Krishna, one of the last surviving members of the Yadu dynasty.
The most beautiful temple was built in 400 CE by the benevolent Gupta emperor Vikramaditya, but it was destroyed by Mahmud of Ghazni in 1017. In 1150, the third temple was built by Jajja during the reign of King Dhrupet Deva Janjuja, the emperor of Mathura.
Lord Chaitanya, Lord Krishna appeared 536 years ago responsible for founding the Hare Krishna movement, worshiped here in the 16th century before the Islamic Sultanate of Delhi was destroyed by Sikandar Lodhi. The temple was rebuilt again in the 17th century as the Keshav Dev Temple, which was destroyed by the Mughal ruler Aurangzeb, who was notorious for desecrating many Hindu temples.

From the analysis of Archaeological research and thousands of archaeological fragments of Katara Keshavdev and the different writings of foreign tourists, it is evident that huge temples were built from time to time at this place. The evidence shows that Brajanabh the great-grandson of Krishna has built the first temple at the prison of Kans where the Bhagwan Krishna was divinely born….
From the stones script written in Brahmi script “Mahakshatrap Shodash” (B.D. 80-57), it is evident that a person named Vasu has built a Festonn and yagna kund (यज्ञकुन्ड) at the birthplace of Krishna. During the regime of Chandragupta, Vikramaditya, the temple was rebuilt.
During this period this temple was not only the place of the Vaidik ritual but also the place of faith for Buddhists, Jains. In A.D.1017 this gracious temple was looted by Mohammed of Ghaznavi. In the book, Tarike Yamini written by Mir Munshi Al-Utabi, it is stated that in the very middle of the city there was an elegant temple, it was so beautiful, it appeared to have been built by the angels. It is very difficult to describe the elegance of the surrounding temples too in words and in pictures. Sultan Mohammed has also stated that if anybody tries to build such a gracious temple, the expenses would be 10 crores of Dinar and it will take not less than 200 years. However, Being a follower of the koran, Mohammed destroyed this temple in the heat of anger. History shows that the very sincere devotion towards Krishna and lively Hinduism inspired a person named Jajja to build another Krishna Janma Bhoomi and during the regime of Maharana Vijaypal Dev of Mathura in 1150, the temple was rebuilt.
The evidence from the stones script written in Sanskrit at Katara Keshavdev shows that the temple has become the target of destruction in the evil eyes of Muslim rulers. During the regime of Sikander Lodi, Krishna Janma Bhoomi was once again was destroyed. After about 125 years during the rule of Jahangir King, Vir Sinha Judev Bundela constructed a very huge temple 250 feet tall at the cost of Rs.33 lakhs. In order to protect the temple from the evil eye of Muslim rulers, a tall and strong wall was built around the temple….
The tourists Taivaniyar from France, Manuchi from Italy described the temple as a beautiful masterpiece. The apex of the temple was covered with Gold and it was so tall that one can see from a distance of 36 miles away from the Agra. All these praise-worthy writings regarding the temple made Aurangzeb angry and he destroyed the temple in 1669. He was so irritated about the elegance of Hindu temples that bricks and other materials recovered from the destruction of temples were used by him to make a big chair. The height of the destructive Islamic mind of Aurangzeb is nothing but the construction of the anti-Vedic evil structure of Idgah at the very birthplace of Krishna. Brahmins and Sages had forewarned Aurangzeb of dire consequences for his evil act of destructing Hindu temples and now Shri Krishna Janm Bhoomi temple….
The East India Company later auctioned the place to generate revenue from the emotions of the Hindus.
Marathas declared the whole area of Katara Keshavdev including Idgah as unowned property and nobody has taken care of this property. This was a grave mistake on the part of the erstwhile Marathas, they should have owned the property and constructed a huge Shri Krishna temple over it. Due to the fragmentation of strength among Hindu rulers, in 1802 Lord Lake acquired victory over Marathas, and Mathura and Agra became a territory of the East India Company. [The loss of places by Maratha rulers is a lesson for modern Hindus, to remain united and fight aggressively against invaders and mlecchas(anti-Hindus)]. East India Company was managed by cruel, wicked, and cunning Britishers, they needed money to take other parts of India in their grip. So they devised several ways to generate income from Hindus which included charging extra money from Hindu pilgrims in their holy places – this evil concept was followed by the precedence set by terrorist Mughal rulers. In 1815 East India Company declared an auction of Katara Keshavdev area admeasuring 13.37 sq. acres. This area was sold to King Patnimal of Kashi. However, though King wanted to build a gracious temple in the memory of Bhagwan Krishna, to fulfill the demands of millions of Hindus, the Muslims took the wrong objection that the auction was only for Katara Keshavdev and not for anti-Vedic structure, Idgah. The dispute was initiated by Muslims which instigated further rift between peaceful Hindus and troublemaker Muslims. The unfair and illegal demands of Muslims took the course of disputes to legal battles.
In the year 1878, for the first time, Muslims registered the case. They stated that Katara Keshavdev is the property of Idgah and Idgah was built by Aurangzeb. In this case, evidence was demanded from Mathura jurisdiction. The then collector secretary Mr. Tailor stated that this area was unowned in the regime of Maratha. However, the East India Company has also considered the area unclaimed. Subsequently, in the year 1815, King Patnimal purchased the area in the auction. He further added that according to the verdict, King Patnimal was the owner of the area including other constructions and Idgah, since he paid for the entire area admeasuring 13.37 sq. acres. So any construction happening within the premise is fully owned by King Patnimal. Muslims became speechless because they cribbed without any substantial evidence of legal ownership. And since the original temple of Shri Krishna Janam Bhoomi belonged to Hindus and later to Hindu King Patnimal, their false claim was overturned….
The second time the case was registered as Ahmed Shah V/s. Gopi under section 447/352 I.P.C. Mathura in the court of second class Magistrate, Anthony. In this case, Ahmed Shah alleged that the watchman of Idgah, Gopi, was constructing a road in the western side of Katara Keshavdev. However, that road is the property of Idgah and hence, Ahmed Shah stopped Gopi from improving the road. In this case, the learned judge gave a decision that the road was the property of the family Patnimal and the allegation made by Ahmed Shah was completely untrue. The cunning ploy to establish somehow ownership of Idgah again fell flat.
The Third case was made by the district judge of Agra in the civil court. Appeal No.236 of 1921 and 276 of 1920. This appeal was made in opposition to the decision given by Judge Hoper of Mathura. In the verdict of this case, it is stated that East India Company had auctioned the entire area and sold to King Patnimal at Rs.1140/- and tax was collected by the King. In the court verdict, the decision is given as the disputable area is not of Idgah as Idgah is property of King Patnimal. So King and his heirs had every right to collect tax on their own land.
Declaration of the Hindu Rights on Entire Area of Shri Krishna Janm Bhoomi Muslims by any which means wanted illegal ownership of anti-Vedic strucure, Idgah. In the year 1928, Muslims installed a mill for the maintenance and renovation of Idgah. Again the case was registered in the Court of Law and learned Pandit Bishan Narayan Tankha gave the verdict that Katara Keshavdev is the property of descendants of Raja Patnimal and hence neither renovation of Idgah nor installation of the mill is allowed. On 7.2.1944 Pandit Madan Mohan Malviya expressed his desire to build Shri Krishna Temple at that place. From the inspiration of M.M.Malviya, Jugal Kishore Birla purchased the entire area at Rs.13,400/- and a trust was formed by Madan Mohan Malviya, Hanuman Prasad Potdar & Bhikamal Atriya.
