The Supreme Court on Thursday said it will hear the case relating to Varanasi’s Gyanvapi mosque on April 14 and allowed the Muslim side to file an application before it regarding their request to allow the practice of ablution inside the mosque premises.
Mentioning the matter before the apex court, Senior Advocate Huzefa Ahmadi said: “This is a month of Ramzan and the worshippers should be able to pray inside the premises.” In response, Chief Justice of India (CJI) DY Chandrachud asked for an application to be filed in this regard.
The wuzu area, where the practice of ablution takes place, is at the centre of the dispute since the Hindu side had claimed that a Shivling has been found at the centre of the contested area.
