Varanasi, India: In a significant development in the Gyanvapi mosque case, the court has granted approval for an Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) survey of the Gyanvapi mosque complex, excluding the Wazu tank, which has been sealed. Vishnu Shankar Jain, the counsel representing the Hindu side in the contentious case, confirmed the court's decision and expressed his satisfaction with the progress.
The Gyanvapi mosque, located in Varanasi, has been the center of a prolonged legal dispute between Hindu and Muslim groups over its historical significance and rightful ownership. The recent court ruling comes as a crucial step in determining the truth behind the claims of both parties.
Vishnu Shankar Jain stated, "I have been informed that my application for an ASI survey of the Gyanvapi mosque complex has been approved by the court. The survey will be conducted, excluding the sealed Wazu tank area. This is a significant development in the case, and we hope it will shed light on the historical facts surrounding the site."
The ASI survey is expected to provide an impartial and scientific assessment of the site's archaeological evidence, offering insights into its history and potential layers of construction over time. This step aims to resolve conflicting historical narratives and bring forth an objective assessment of the Gyanvapi mosque complex.
The Gyanvapi case has been closely watched by people across the country, and this recent development marks a pivotal moment in the legal proceedings. The court's decision to conduct an ASI survey is seen as an important step towards reaching a just resolution in the long-standing dispute.
The case has drawn considerable attention due to its religious and historical significance. It is now anticipated that the ASI survey will provide valuable insights into the complex's historical evolution, and the findings will be crucial in shaping the court's final decision.
As the ASI proceeds with the survey, all parties involved are keenly awaiting the results, hopeful that the scientific and impartial investigation will contribute to an informed resolution of the Gyanvapi case.
