Allahabad High Court Adjourns Hearing on ASI Survey Plea of Gyanvapi Mosque Wazukhana
The Allahabad High Court has adjourned the hearing on a plea seeking an Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) survey of the Gyanvapi mosque's wazukhana area, excluding a disputed structure described by Hindus as a Shivling and by Muslims as a fountain. The hearing, presided over by Justice Rohit Ranjan Agarwal, was deferred to August 24 due to the matter pending before the Supreme Court, which has scheduled its next hearing for August 10. The petition challenges a Varanasi district judge's October 2023 order denying the ASI survey.
