A single judge bench of the Rajasthan High Court has directed the maintenance of 'status quo' with regard to 729 bighas of land of a temple trust in Karauli, 410 bighas of which were leased out to the Patanjali Trust of Baba Ramdev.
The bench as also called for a report from the assistant commissioner of 'Devasthan' department.
The land was leased out to the Patanjali Trust for developing a yoga institute, medicine manufacture units and allied activities. The foundation of the project was laid down by Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje in presence of Baba Ramdev recently this year.
In a petition challenging the lease, it was alleged that most part of the land had residential colonies on it.
The interim order directing maintenance of status quo came on a petition filed by one Ram Kumar Singh.
