Supreme Court Defers Permission for Rituals at Sealed Gyanvapi Mosque Site

Supreme Court Defers Permission for Rituals at Sealed Gyanvapi Mosque SitePreviousNext

The Supreme Court declined to immediately allow Hindu devotees to perform rituals at the sealed wuzukhana area inside the Gyanvapi mosque complex in Varanasi during the upcoming Shravan month, citing that it is "not the right time." The disputed site, claimed by Hindus to contain a Shivling discovered in 2022, remains sealed under court orders. Both Hindu and Muslim parties recently rejected the court's mediation proposal, opting for judicial resolution. The court adjourned the plea for two weeks, urging patience.
