Gyanvapi Mosque case: Varanasi Court to Decide on Public Release Of ASI Survey Report
A Varanasi court is likely to decide on Friday regarding the public release of the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) survey report on the Gyanvapi mosque complex, PTI reported. The report, sealed since its submission on December 18, is at the center of a legal dispute between Hindu and Muslim parties.
The ASI, on Wednesday, requested the court to withhold the report from public scrutiny for an additional four weeks, as disclosed by Madan Mohan Yadav, the lawyer representing the Hindu side. PTI reported. Varanasi District Court Judge A K Vishvesh initially postponed the decision until Thursday. However, due to the judge's prior engagement in an event related to Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya, the matter was rescheduled for Friday.
The court ordered the scientific survey of the Gyanvapi premises, situated adjacent to the Kashi Vishwanath temple in Varanasi, in response to claims by petitioners that the 17th-century mosque was built over the remains of a Hindu temple. The ASI's report holds significant importance in determining the historical and religious context of the site.
