'Deity at Qutub Minar survived for 800 yrs without worship, let it continue'

The Saket court in Delhi has resumed its hearing on a plea seeking restoration of Hindu and Jain temples that were purportedly demolished hundreds of years ago in the Qutub Minar complex in Delhi.

On the petitioner’s demand to worship Hindu deities within the complex, the judge said, "The deity has survived for 800 years without any worship. Let them survive like that."
