History of lucknow has been associated with the Ramayana period, Lucknow was formely named after Laxmana, the younger brother of Shri Rama i.e. Laxmanavati or Laxmanapur.
According to the information available in various websites #लक्ष्मण_टीला which is located in lucknow, now known as #टीले_वाली_मस्जिद , the cave of Shehnag near this Laxman Tila was demolished by Khilji and later masjid was built by Aurangzeb at this place.
According to the research done by P.Noak, there was a hole in the earth above the Lakshman Tila in which Hindus used to offer water and flowers,because according to theirs, this hole goes to the head of Sheshnag, according to shashtras he kept the whole earth on his head.
In June 27, 2018, 2 BJP councilors Rajneesh Gupta and Ramakrishna Yadav again asked for the Mūrti of Laxman to be erected in front of this masjid, then the Imam of the mosque oppose him by saying that it may create disturbance for mulzims in offering namaz and
