Filming Resumes At Varanasi Mosque Complex On Day 3, 65% Completed So Far

The mosque is located close to the iconic Kashi Vishwanath temple.

A court-mandated videography survey of the Gyanvapi Masjid complex in Varanasi began for the third consecutive day on Monday amid tight security, officials said.

Till Sunday, around 65 per cent of the survey was completed.

"The survey at the Gyanvapi Masjid complex has started," Varanasi District Magistrate Kaushal Raj Sharma and Police Commissioner A Satish Ganesh told PTI.

The mosque is located close to the iconic Kashi Vishwanath temple and the local court is hearing a plea by a group of women seeking permission for daily prayers before the idols on its outer walls.
