One of the Hindu petitioners in the Gyanvapi mosque worship rights suit has filed a fresh application in the court of Varanasi District Judge pleading for directions to the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) to undertake a survey of the Wazukhana area of the mosque (except for the Shiva Linga) without causing any damage to the structure.
The application by Rakhi Singh in the Shringar Gauri worshipping suit 2022 (presently pending before the Varanasi court) stated that one of the important questions to be decided by the court was: what was the religious character of the Gyanvapi mosque precincts on August 15, 1947 as Muslims were claiming their right on it.
