Gyanvapi Masjid Row: Every detail from inside

The Gyanvapi case has been posted for hearing on July 4 by the Varanasi district court which will further hear arguments on the maintainability of a plea by five Hindu women seeking permission for daily worship of the Shringar Gauri Sthal within the Kashi Vishwanath-Gyanvapi complex.

The Muslim side, on Monday, presented their argument and registered their point-to-point objections to the Hindu side's plea in court.

Five Hindu women have sought round-the-year access to offer prayers at the Shringar Gauri Sthal in the Kashi Vishwanath-Gyanvapi complex.

The Muslim side has argued that the plea is not maintainable as the Places of Worship Act, 1991 prohibits the conversion of a place of worship and orders the maintenance of the religious character of any place of worship as it existed on August 15, 1947.
