Gyanvapi Row: Archaeological Survey of India begins a survey of Gyanvapi mosque complex

In a fresh development in the Gyanvapi row, the Archaeological Survey of India has begun a fresh scientific survey of the Gyanvapi mosque complex. After being granted permission by the Allahabad High Court on August 3rd to continue the survey on the Gyanvapi mosque complex in Varanasi, the Archaeological Survey of India has begun a fresh scientific survey of the Gyanvapi mosque complex amid tight security. The survey began on July 24, but was stalled by the Supreme Court which ordered "some breathing time" to appeal a district court order.
