In this petition, the petitioners have raised concern with regard to establishment of a statue of Maharaja Agrasen and its chabutra on the square of the road near Ramleela Maidan. [2026:RJ-JP:9500-DB] (2 of 3) [CW-3491/2026] 4. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the general public has raised objections regarding the establishment of concerned idol. However, the concerned local community has constructed and established the idol by making the construction during the night itself. 5. Learned counsel for the petitioners has invited our attention to the photographs to submit that the particular community has made it a place for prayer which obstructs the regular day to day traffic on the main busy road of Neem Ka Thana. 6. We find that the concerned idol was established after seeking permission from the Divisional Commissioner, Jaipur Division, Jaipur, who vide order dated 30.01.2026 allowed the establishment of idol of Maharaja Agrasen. The establishment of the idol was subject to certain restrictions which were laid down in the order dated 30.01.2026. 7. As on date from the contents of the petition, we don't find that there is violation of any of the conditions laid down in the order dated 30.01.2026. 8. We also hold that so far as the establishment of the idol in the square having been made with due permission cannot be objected to, however, at the same time we put a conscious note that the establishment of idol and its chabutra would not mean that the place can be used for prayers or for any celebration or occasion. The square shall remain intact and no disturbance should be caused to the traffic in or around the circle. Those who have faith in the said idol, can ofcourse do some garlanding etc. but would not encroach the place for conducting any programmes and disturbing the regular vehicle traffic. [2026:RJ-JP:9500-DB] (3 of 3) [CW-3491/2026] 9. With the said observations, we close the present Public Interest Litigation. (SHUBHA MEHTA),J (SANJEEV PRAKASH SHARMA),ACTING CJ Himanshu Soni/18
