Varanasi Court to Decide on Making An ASI Survey Report on Gyanvapi Mosque Public on Saturday

Varanasi/Hyderabad, Jan 5 (Maxim news):  A Varanasi Court is likely to give a ruling on Saturday for making the sealed ASI survey report on the Gyanvapi mosque complex public and providing copies of it to the Hindu and Muslim sides

The court of district Judge A.K. Vishvesh on Friday said since the order on the issue has not been typed out yet, it will be given on Saturday, said Madan Mohan Yadav, the lawyer for the Hindu side. 

The counsels of both Hindu and Muslim sides as well as that of the Archeological Survey of India (ASI) were present in court. 

Following a July 21 order of the district court, the ASI carried out a scientific survey of the Gyanvapi premises, located next to the Kashi Vishwanath temple here, to determine whether the mosque was constructed over a pre-existing structure of a Hindu temple. 

The survey was ordered by the Court after the petitioners claimed that the 17th century mosque was constructed over a pre-existing temple.  (Maxim News)
