The Allahabad High Court on Wednesday stayed the Archaeological Survey of India’s (ASI) scientific survey of the Gyanvapi mosque premises till Thursday (July 27) while orally expressing “strong doubts” about the work.
This is the second time the ASI survey has been stayed during the week. The Supreme Court had stayed the survey on July 24, giving the Gyanvapi mosque management “breathing time” to approach the High Court.
