SC to hear plea by Muslim side on April 14 for 'Wuzu' in Gyanvapi mosque

Gyanvapi Mosque in Varanasi

New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Monday agreed to hear on April 14 a fresh plea by the Muslim side in the Gyanvapi mosque-Kashi Vishwanath Temple dispute case of Varanasi seeking alternative arrangement for 'Wuzu' or ablution where the Shivling was reportedly found, in view of more rush during Ramzan.

A bench of Chief Justices of India DY Chandrachud and Justices PS Narasimha and JB Pardiwala said it would hear the matter on April 14.

Senior advocate Huzefa Ahmadi for the Muslim side mentioned the matter before the bench for an urgent hearing saying the court order has already said that adequate arrangements should be made. Arrangements are not made yet, there are more worshipers due to Ramzan, Ahmadi told the bench, adding that they are requesting for arrangements to be made for 'Wuzu'. (with Agency inputs)
