Earlier in the day, the HC dismissed a petition filed by the Gyanvapi panel challenging a district court order directing the ASI to conduct the survey to determine if the 17th-century mosque was built upon a temple. Hours later, advocate Nizam Pasha mentioned the matter before Chief Justice of India D Y Chandrachud.
“I have sent an email (seeking urgent hearing). Let them not proceed with the survey...” he said. “I will look at the email right away,” the CJI responded. One of the parties from the Hindu side has also filed a caveat in the SC saying no orders be passed without hearing them in the matter.
