1. Manish Yadav’s advocate, Devkinandan Sharma, suspected that the Muslim party would remove the inscription in the Eidgah. This evidence can be destroyed. Thus, all evidence should be collected and filmed in the presence of both parties.

2. According to Mahendra Singh, he had previously filed a petition on 24^th February 2021, requesting filming of the hearing and the appointment of a Court Commissioner. However, no decision was made. As a result, the petition was filed again on 9^th May 2022.

3. The advocate for Shahi Eidgah Mosque, Tanveer Ahmed, said Hindu parties have been filing various petitions for the past two years. However, they have no idea about what they want to convey from it. There is no need to film the two shrines in Mathura since they are different.

4. Earlier, the Allahabad High Court had directed that all petitions pertaining to Shrikrushna Janmabhoomi and Shahi Eidgah Masjid must be disposed of within the next four months.
