What did Devkinandan Maharaj claim?

Katha Vyas Devkinandan Thakur claims that the idols of Lord Keshavdev temple are buried under the stairs built in Agra's Jama Masjid. He told that in the year 1670, the Mughal ruler Aurangzeb had demolished the Thakur Keshav Dev temple at the birthplace of Shri Krishna in Mathura and built a mosque at that place. The idols were buried under the stairs of Jahanara Begum Masjid (Small Mosque) in Agra and even today those idols are buried there. People climb these stairs to go inside the mosque and the holy idols of God are being trampled upon.
