Prayagraj: Allahabad High Court on Wednesday dismissed the Muslim side’s plea challenging the maintainability of five Hindu women worshippers’ suit filed in Varanasi Court seeking the right to worship inside Gyanvapi mosque in Varanasi.

“It is a historic verdict. The court clearly has said that Anjuman Intezamia Mosque Committee’s petition is not maintainable and dismissed it,” Vishnu Shankar Jain said, representing the Hindu side in the Gyanvapi mosque case.

The Muslim side on May 22 submitted its written objections before the Varanasi District Court in the matter of the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) investigation of the entire Gyanvapi mosque premises.
