New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Saturday established an 11-member interim high-power committee, headed by Judge Justice Ashok Kumar, former Allahabad High Court, to take care of day-to-day functioning inside and outside the Banke Bihari temple in Vrindavan and planning the "overall development" around the temple and around it.Justice Surya Kant and a bench of Joylya Bagchi also indicated green to the Uttar Pradesh government, which proceeded to proceed with the acquisition of land around the temple required to develop a corridor on the lines of a Kashi Vishwanath temple in Varanasi.Without expressing any opinion on the validity of the state ordinance for the development of the temple and its surroundings, he constructed the corridor by constructing Rs 200 crore from the temple fund, the bench said that it is to decide the validity of the ordinance for Allahabad HC. It requested HC to decide the constitutionality of the ordinance within one year of the latest writ petitions filed against it.Rejecting the applications filed by priests and other interested persons, objecting to the suggestions of improving the functioning of the temple, the bench said, "We do not see any merit in these objections at all, at this stage, especially when we have given freedom to challenge the ordinance before HC." var _mfq = window._mfq || []; _mfq.push(["setVariable", "toi_titan", window.location.href]); !(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) { function loadFBEvents(isFBCampaignActive) { if (!isFBCampaignActive) { return; } (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) { if (f.fbq) return; n = f.fbq = function() { n.callMethod ? n.callMethod(...arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments); }; if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n; n.push = n; n.loaded = !0; n.version = '2.0'; n.queue = []; t = b.createElement(e); t.async = !0; t.defer = !0; t.src = v; s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s); })(f, b, e, 'https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/fbevents.js', n, t, s); fbq('init', '593671331875494'); fbq('track', 'PageView'); }; function loadGtagEvents(isGoogleCampaignActive) { if (!isGoogleCampaignActive) { return; } var id = document.getElementById('toi-plus-google-campaign'); if (id) { return; } (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) { t = b.createElement(e); t.async = !0; t.defer = !0; t.src = v; t.id = 'toi-plus-google-campaign'; s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s); })(f, b, e, 'https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=AW-877820074', n, t, s); }; function loadSurvicateJs(allowedSurvicateSections = []){ const section = window.location.pathname.split('/')[1] const isHomePageAllowed = window.location.pathname === '/' && allowedSurvicateSections.includes('homepage') const ifAllowedOnAllPages = allowedSurvicateSections && allowedSurvicateSections.includes('all'); if(allowedSurvicateSections.includes(section) || isHomePageAllowed || ifAllowedOnAllPages){ (function(w) { function setAttributes() { var prime_user_status = window.isPrime ?
