A lawyer from the Hindu side has claimed that fragments of idols have been found during ASI's survey of the Gyanvapi Mosque complex.
Fragments of idols have allegedly been found in the Gyanvapi Mosque complex during the survey which is being conducted by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI), Sudhir Tripathi, a lawyer of the Hindu side claimed on Saturday while talking to the media. "Not idols, but remains of fragmented idols have been found," he said. He added that they (the Hindu side) are hopeful that idols will also be found during the survey. While talking about the areas of focus during the survey, he said that the ASI is currently focusing more around wuzu khana (ablution area), where the alleged Shivling was found, and the place where they (Muslims) offered prayers.
