Delhi's Jama Masjid has attracted a fresh row of controversy after it reportedly issued a 'diktak' (settlement) prohibiting entry of solitary women into the mosque without a male companion. Reportedly, the order has now been revoked by the imam after Delhi L-G VK Saxena requested him to rescind it. The imam has, however, requested visitors to respect and maintain the sanctity of the mosque.
