Justice DY Chandrachud-led bench of the Supreme Court on Tuesday will hear an appeal filed against the Allahabad High Court order allowing a court-appointed commissioner to inspect, conduct a survey and videography of the Gyanvapi Mosque in Varanasi in which Hindus and Muslims claim to have worship rights, Hindustan Times reported.
The court-mandated videography survey of the Gyanvapi Masjid complex concluded on Monday on the third day amid tight security.
According to the report, the survey of the mosque complex, which started at 8 am, concluded at around 10:15 am.
The mosque is located close to the iconic Kashi Vishwanath temple and the local court is hearing a plea by a group of women seeking permission for daily prayers before the idols on its outer walls.
