"Captured By Aurangzeb": Hindu Side's Reply To Gyanvapi Mosque Panel
NDTV
The lawyers for the Hindu devotees in their petition claimed that the property belongs to Lord Adi Vishweshwar for thousands of years and it was forcibly captured by Aurangzeb.
The lawyers representing the Hindu devotees yesterday urged the Supreme Court to dismiss the petition filed by the Varanasi's Gyanvapi mosque committee challenging the filming inside the Mosque.
The Supreme Court had earlier issued a notice to the Hindu side and the Uttar Pradesh government on the plea filed by the mosque committee, which had opposed filming inside the mosque and also accused the Varanasi court-appointed commissioner of partiality.
In their response, the lawyers for the Hindu devotees in their petition claimed that the property belongs to Lord Adi Vishweshwar for thousands of years and it was forcibly captured by Aurangzeb.
The Supreme Court yesterday said it would take up the case on Friday after the lawyers for the Hindu petitioners asked for an adjournment. The top court also asked the civil court in Varanasi to not proceed with hearing the Gyanvapi case till it takes up the matter.
