However, the District Court has admitted the suit and called for records.It is alleged that in 1968, the Society Shree Krishna Janamasthan Seva Sangh entered into a compromise with the Committee of Management of Trust Masjid Idgah, conceding a considerable portion of property belonging to the deity to the latter. Disputing the legality of this compromise, the Appellants had submitted: "Shri Krishna Janmasthan Seva Sangh was not the owner and the property had vested in the deity/Trust and therefore said society had no authority under law to file the suit and enter into compromise with Trust Masjid Idgah."
