The district court in Varanasi on Monday resumed the hearing in the ongoing Gyanvapi Mosque-Kashi Vishwanath Temple civil dispute, with the Anjuman Intezamia Masjid Committee completing its submissions on all points raised by the Hindu plaintiffs in their suit.
District judge A.K. Vishvesha heard submissions from the masjid panel on its Order VII Rule 11 application challenging the maintainability of the Hindu side’s suit and has now posted the matter for next hearing on July 12.
Senior advocate Mumtaz Ahmed, representing the masjid panel, told The Hindu that they took the court through all the averments mentioned in the Hindu side’s suit. “We will continue the rest of our arguments on specific legislation and other points of law on the next date of hearing,” he said.
