| Gyanvapi survey allowed by Allahabad high court |
The Allahabad high court on Thursday ruled that the ASI survey on the Gyanvapi mosque complex in Varanasi will continue. The Muslim side's plea that the survey may damage the structure has been dismissed by the high court. The survey will be done in the terms of the ASI's affidavit, Vishnu Shankar Jain, the lawyer for the Hindu side said after the Allahabad high court's major verdict.
On July 21, a Varanasi court directed the ASI to conduct the survey to determine where the mosque was actually built on the site of a temple. The survey began on July 24, but was stalled by the Supreme Court which ordered "some breathing time" to appeal a district court order.
