The Lahore High Court on Wednesday admitting a petition against closing customary oldest door of Shrine Hazrat Baba Fareed ud Din Shakar Gunj issued notice for September 16 to Chief Secretary Punjab, Chief Administrator Auqaf Punjab, Secretary Auqaf Punjab and others.
The petitioner, a bar member Zahirul Hassan contended that administration had closed the door of the shrine on July 01, 2010 for security reasons. He said hundreds of thousands of pilgrims were disappointed with this decision. He also said that due to closer of the door many shopkeepers were also facing financial loss. He therefore prayed to the court to direct the respondents open as soon as possible. The court after hearing the petitioner at length issued notices to all the respondents and sought reply.
