Varanasi : All India Muslim Personal Law Board on Wednesday decided to extend legal assistance to the Muslim side in the ongoing Gyanvapi Mosque case.
In a two and a half hours emergency meeting of its executive committee convened today, discussions were held on the Gyanvapi row and Tipu Sultan mosque while some major decisions were also taken.
“Since the matter is in the court, the decision has been taken to extend all possible help by the legal committee to the Muslim side in their fight in the case,” said the sources.
The Board will seek the opinions of the Centre and the political parties over the Places of Worship Act, 1991.
“The Board will publish pamphlets and books to apprise the public about the half-baked information being made available to the public,” said the sources.
Meanwhile, Hindu petitioner in the case, Sohan Lal Arya on Monday claimed that the committee found a Shivling at the complex. Arya, who accompanied the court commission for the mosque survey, said that they have found “conclusive evidence”.
