Ram Temple priest reacts to Varanasi court's order allowing prayers in Gyanvapi mosque's cellar

 

A court in Varanasi on Wednesday granted the late priest's family the right to worship Hindu deities in the cellar of the Jawapi Masjid.
Ayodhya: Following the Varanasi district court's decision allowing the Hindu side to worship at Gyanvapi Masjid, Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra chief priest Acharya Satyendra Das on Wednesday said the injustice will be corrected. "The order to pray there has been given and it should continue. It is a good thing that the right to puja is given. The truth has come out," he said. Article
The error has now been corrected,” he said.
Varanasi district court on Wednesday granted the family of the late priest the right to worship Hindu deities in the cellar of Jawapi Masjid.

The order was passed by Justice AK Vishvesh, who asked the district administration to make arrangements for prayers in the mosque within seven days. Until 1993, Pastor Somnath Vyas continued to pray in the basement. However, the practice was stopped after the basement was sealed by Varanasi authorities.
Vyas's son-in-law Shailendra Kumar Pathak went to court to get back his right to pray in the vault.

Lawyers of the Hindu side say that prayers were stopped during Mulayam Singh Yadav's rule.

The Muslim side will challenge the decision in the Allahabad High Court.
Advocate Vishnu Shankar Jain, representing the Hindu side, said there was no order from the government to prevent Hindus from praying here.

"Once the preparations are completed, the Hindu devotees start praying. Shri Kashi Vishwanath Temple Trust does not need any orders to prepare prayers. We have completed our work as per law. "Believers must start worshiping within seven days," he said.
