Gyanvapi dispute | Mosque panel requests court not to release survey report in public domain

With the district court in Varanasi set to hear the Gyanvapi Mosque-Kashi Vishwanath temple dispute again on Monday, an application has been filed before the court by a lawyer representing the Anjuman Intezamia Masjid Committee, seeking that the report of the mosque’s survey be kept from the public domain.

The application has been filed before the court of District and Sessions Judge, Varanasi, A.K. Vishvesha, and has sought that the report of the survey and any videos and photographs of it be shared only with the concerned parties in the dispute, given the sensitivity of the case.

Filed on Friday, the application states that several parties unrelated to the court proceedings, including some media organisations, have submitted pleas seeking a copy of the survey report and videos and photographs taken during the survey. It states that these parties have no relation whatsoever to the ongoing proceedings.
