The Allahabad High Court has fixed February 3 as the next date for the hearing in the Gyanvapi mosque dispute case in Varanasi.
The court heard a petition which seeks a scientific survey by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) of the ablution area (wazu khana) of the Gyanvapi complex, excluding the Shivling.
The civil revision petition has been filed by Rakhi Singh, a party in the Shringar Gauri case.
The Single bench court of Justice Rohit Ranjan Agarwal was hearing the case.
Rakhi Singh has challenged the Varanasi Civil Court’s decision of October 21, 2023, in the Allahabad High Court.
The Varanasi court had refused to grant permission to the ASI to survey the wazoo khana area of the Gyanvapi mosque.
However , the Supreme Court’s interim order prevents courts from passing any effective interim or final orders, including orders for a survey.
