To continue the complex’s scientific survey, a group of Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) officials arrived at the Gyanvapi mosque on Sunday morning. Prior to the arrival of the ASI team, a sizable police presence was also deployed in the area. According to attorneys, the court-ordered survey’s primary phase is now complete, and the secondary phase, which will involve “machines” like radars, will start today.
A lawyer for the Hindu side in the Gyanvapi case named Subhash Nandan Chaturvedi stated, “Today will mark the start of the third day of the survey. Today’s start of the secondary stage follows the conclusion of the primary stage. Additionally, machines will be used. Another advocate for the Hindu side, Sudhir Tripathi, stated, “Today is the third day of the survey. Yesterday, a number of devices were used, including the Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS), and today, radars could be used. The survey is satisfactory to us, and the Muslim side is cooperating and has no complaints.
The scientific survey of the complex , adjacent to Kashi Vishwanath Temple, excluding Wuzu Khana, began on Friday, following Allahabad High Court’s order, which allowed the ASI to conduct the survey, to determine if the mosque was built on a pre-existing temple.
