šŸšØ#GyanvapiCase: Varanasi Court today to pronounce order on Hindu worshipers' plea seeking scientific investigation of 'Shivalinga' found in the Wazookhana- a spot for Namazis to perform ablutions before prayers.
#VaranasiCourt #Gyanvapi
The Hindu plaintiffs have argued that the 'Shivlinga' is part of the suit property and under Order 26 Rule 10A of CPC, the court can issue a commission for its scientific investigation (including carbon dating).
#VaranasiCourt #gyanvapi
On the other hand, the mosque management committee has alleged that the concerned Shivlinga-like structure is a fountain that is not currently in use.

District Judge Ajay Krishna Vishwesha is likely to pronounce orders at around 2 pm today.

What they say:

1)Indian Muslims of current time mustnā€™t be held responsible for crimes done by tyrants like Tipu & Aurangzeb

& then they also say:

2)What happened in past mustnā€™t be settled for peace
By saying (2) they beat their (1).

I agree to (1) & hence want to fix all the issues of past (as it has nothing to do with current Muslims) & if anyone opposes such step (like #GyanvapiCase ), he/she is no different than that tyrant (Aurangzeb).
Indian canā€™t have place or affinity for any Aurangzeb under any circumstances.

If someone argues that now that Muslims have been praying there (say #GyanvapiCase ), since 3 centuries we must let it go for peace, then they put a big ā€œ?ā€ on current Muslims.
