Lucknow: The Supreme Court has stopped the Archaeological Survey of India from inspecting the Gyanvapi mosque. The order is that there should be no inspection till 5 pm on Wednesday. The Supreme Court also clarified that the mosque panel can file an appeal against the district court verdict in the Allahabad court.
According to the order of the Varanasi court, the archaeological department started the scientific inspection of the mosque on Monday morning. The Varanasi court had dismissed the mosque panel’s contention that the mosque excavation survey would damage the mosque. The court accepted the argument that the petition should be considered urgently.
