ASI Submits Gyanvapi Survey Report in Court After 7 Extensions

The Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) has submitted its report on the scientific survey of the Gyanvapi mosque complex in Varanasi, after seven extensions. The report was filed in two sealed envelopes before the district judge, who scheduled the next hearing for December 21. One envelope contained the report, while the other had a list of articles found in debris at the mosque compound. The mosque management committee requested that the report be filed in a sealed envelope to ensure confidentiality, while the plaintiffs' lawyer opposed this request and demanded a copy of the report.
