The Anjuman Intezamia Masjid Committee on Tuesday concluded its submissions on their Order VII Rule 11 application, challenging the maintainability of the Hindu plaintiffs’ suit in the ongoing Gyanvapi mosque-Kashi Vishwanath Temple civil dispute, .
Soon after, four of the Hindu plaintiffs began their submissions before Varanasi district judge A.K. Vishvesha, opposing the Masjid panel’s application, with Advocate Vishnu Shankar Jain leading their legal team.
“We started our arguments by submitting that our suit is not barred under the Places of Worship Act, 1991 or by the Waqf Act,” Mr. Jain said. “Also, we argued that the Masjid panel submissions had clearly gone beyond the ambit of the pleadings in their application.”
