SC Refuse To Stay The Allahabad High Court’s Order Allowing ASI Survey Of Gyanvapi

Delhi/Hyderabad, Aug 4 (Maxim News):  The Supreme Court on Friday refused to stay the Allahabad High Court‘s order allowing the Archeological Survey of India (ASI) to survey the premises of Gyanvapi mosque in Varanasi, except the ‘wuzu khana’.   

A bench, headed by Chief Justice of India, D.Y Chandrachud, and Justices J B Pardiwala and Justice Manoj Mishra recorded the undertaking given by the Archaeological Survey of India that it will not make any excavation at the site during the survey. 

It further directed that ASI will complete the survey process using a non-invasive methodology without causing any damage to the existing structure. 

The bench refused to entertain the request made by senior advocate Huzefa Ahmadi, appearing for the mosque management committee, that the ASI report be kept in a sealed cover until another pending plea pertaining to maintainability is decided by the Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court on Thursday agreed to hear today the plea filed by the Anjuman Intezamia Masjid Committee after the matter was mentioned for urgent listing. 

The Allahabad High Court on Thursday dismissed the plea moved by the Anjuman Intezamia Masjid committee challenging the order passed by the Varanasi district court directing the ASI to survey the barricaded area of the mosque premises, barring the sealed area. (Maxim News)
