Gyanvapi Case: Will Probe to Determine Age of ‘Shivling’ Damage It, Allahabad HC Asks ASI DG

News 18  

The Allahabad High Court has directed the Director General of the Archaeological Survey of India to submit her opinion on whether an investigation of the structure found at Gyanvapi, if examined through carbon dating, Ground Penetrating Radar, excavation and other methods, is likely to damage it or a safe evaluation about its age can be done. The district judge had held that since the Supreme Court had ordered to protect the place where the ‘Shivling’ was found, the plea for its ‘scientific investigation’ could not be allowed. However, the Hindu plaintiffs moved the high court, contending that the said order was bad in law because it was based on a priori reasoning that a scientific investigation of the alleged ‘Shivling’ would lead to its damage. Subsequently, the Hindu side moved an application seeking scientific investigation of the ‘Shivling’ without causing any damage to the structure.
