Following the release of a survey report by the Archeological Survey of India, confirming evidence of Hindu temples, today's Jumma (prayers held by muslims on every friday) at the disputed Gyanvapi mosque holds a special importance.
The ASI survey was ordered by the Varanasi district court after the Hindu petitioners claimed the 17th-century mosque was constructed over a pre-existing temple.
The ASI had already submitted the report earlier this month. The copies of the survey report are likely to be handed over to the relevant parties by tomorrow.
The court will hear the ASI's plea on Wednesday as it was adjourned for the day on Tuesday due to the death of an advocate.
Earlier the ASI was given time till Novemver 17 by the court of Varanasi District Judge Dr Ajay Krishna Vishwesh. The district court on Saturday gave 10 days time more after hearing the plea of the ASI.
Varanasi district judge Ajay Krishna Vishwesh had asked the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) to submit the report in question on November 17.
An assistant sub-inspector (ASI) rank officer sustained injuries after a group of people attacked a police team in Bihar’s Rohtas district, officials said on Monday.
While giving 28 days extension to the survey, the court said no further extension would be given for the survey. This would be the third extension given by the court to complete the survey by the ASI.
