ASI's survey of disputed Bhojshala complex in MP continues on Day 2
Hindustan TimesDhar, The survey of the controversial Bhojshala/Kamal Maula Mosque complex in the tribal-dominated Dhar district of Madhya Pradesh, being conducted by the Archaeological Survey of India, continued for the second day on Saturday. Kamal Maula Mosque Welfare Society President Abdul Samad, one of the parties in the court, told reporters he didn't participate in the process as he was not well and got the information late. The Madhya Pradesh High Court, on March 11, directed ASI to carry out within six weeks a 'scientific survey' of the Bhojshala complex, a medieval-era monument that Hindus believe is a temple of Goddess Vagdevi and the Muslim community calls Kamal Maula Mosque. As per an ASI order issued on April 7, 2003, Hindus are allowed to worship inside the Bhojshala complex every Tuesday, while Muslims are allowed to offer namaz at the site on Fridays.
