The Muslim side said it would approach the High Court after a Varanasi court on Monday agreed to hear the petition of a group of Hindu women seeking year-long access to pray inside the Gyanvapi mosque, situated next to the Kashi Viswanath temple, ANI reported.
“We had petitioned that the case listed was not worth hearing. Our plea was denied today. We will approach the High Court now. Case has just started, it will go on,” ANI quoted Mohd Sameem, advocate of the Muslim side, as saying.
