The Allahabad High Court is all set to hear a plea seeking the survey of the Gyanvapi premises today by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI). The hearing is expected to commence at 2 pm.
Earlier, the Allahabad High Court adjourned the hearing in the Kashi Vishwanath temple-Gyanvapi mosque case till November 28 on an appeal from the mosque management. The court said the matter will not be adjourned on the next date of hearing.
Appearing on behalf of the temple side, advocate C S Vaidyanathan argued that for arriving at a logical conclusion, a survey should be conducted by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) to bring out the prima facie truth.
Meanwhile, the Supreme Court on Friday (November 11) extended its earlier order for the protection of ‘Shivling’ discovered at Gyanvapi mosque complex, Varanasi. The apex court has extended the protection till further order.
