The Uttar Pradesh government has made tight security arrangements for devotees amidst the ongoing Gyanvapi Masjid scenario. The officials stated that the videography survey of the Gyanvapi Masjid complex in Varanasi resumed on Saturday.

At present, the team is surveying the western wall area of the mosque. A total of 52 people have visited the site, including members of both survey teams, petitioners, responders, and administration officers.

All three underground cellars have been surveyed, as of the most recent information. Meanwhile, all routes leading to the Kashi Vishvanath Temple and the Gyanvapi Mosque have been closed, and security has been heightened.

The videography survey resumed after the Court declined to immediately stop the survey of Varanasi’s Gyanvapi Mosque on Friday, saying that the matter would be handled later. The Supreme Court accepted to hear a Muslim party’s appeal against the survey of the Gyanvapi premises.

Two more lawyers have been assigned by the district court to assist the advocate commissioner in conducting the survey at the mosque, which is close to the famous Kashi Vishwanath temple.

The two basements are locked, according to the mosque’s management. The court stated that if the keys are not accessible, the locks should be broken in order to conduct the survey. According to the reports, the court has also ordered the district magistrate and police commissioner to supervise the survey and file an FIR if anyone interferes with it.

A group of women had petitioned the local court on May 12 to allow daily worship of Hindu deities whose idols are positioned on the mosque’s outer wall.

Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has hit back at the allegations leveled by Home Minister Amit Shah and challenged him to name the CBI officials involved in pressuring him to frame his party colleague and then Gujarat CM Narendra Modi in a fake encounter case.

Gehlot, while speaking to the media, said that if Delhi Police can ask for the details of the alleged sexual assault victims in Jammu and Kashmir from Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, then the police can do the same and ask for the names of the CBI officers who allegedly pressurized Shah to frame Modi.

Gehlot spoke to the media and slammed the Police for reaching the house of Rahul Gandhi, following the notice, even though the Congress leader had said that he will respond to the notice. Rajasthan CM also asked if Delhi Police will treat Amit Shah’s claims the same way it did to Rahul Gandhi’s claims and question Home Minister.

Rajasthan CM was referring to the questioning done by Delhi police on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi after he claimed that during the Bharat Jodo Yatra, he claimed to have met women who were allegedly still getting sexually assaulted in the Union Territory. Following the claims by the Congress leader and more than a month after the conclusion of Bharat Jodo Yatra, Delhi police served notice to the Congress leader and arrived at his residence to question him on it.

CM Ashok Gehlot’s challenge to Union Home Minister Amit Shah comes after he spoke to the media in a Media conclave and leveled that the CBI had pressured him to frame the then Gujarat CM Narendra Modi in a fake encounter case. At the time, UPA was in power, highlighted the home minister.

Home Minister Amit Shah’s claims came as a counter to the Opposition that has alleged misuse of central agencies against the Opposition Parties for political benefits and dubbed it to be vendetta politics.

Sisodia’s bail plea was rejected by the court even after his lawyers argued that the central probe agency did not find any incriminating evidence against him during the investigation.

AAP leader Manish Sisodia

The Delhi court on Friday dismissed the bail plea of former Deputy Delhi Chief Minister Manish Sisodia in connection with the now-scrapped liquor policy scam.

A special CBI court in Delhi’s Rouse Avenue headed by M K Nagpal rejected the bail application of the senior Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader in a CBI case pertaining to the alleged irregularities in the framing and implementation of the now-scrapped Delhi excise policy.

Sisodia’s bail plea was rejected by the court even after his lawyers argued that the central probe agency did not find any incriminating evidence against him during the investigation.

Earlier, the court extended the CBI custody of the former education minister of Delhi because it alleged that the minister didn’t cooperate with the CBI team during the interrogation. However, this time Sisodia’s lawyers argued that he cooperated in the investigation and none of the CBI’s searches revealed anything that would require his further custody.

Opposing Sisodia’s bail plea, Advocate DP Singh, a special public prosecutor for CBI, said Manish Sisodia may not be a flight risk, but he is a definite risk who will destroy evidence. A person is a saint till his irregularities and illegalities are not discovered, he added.

The probe agency also claimed that Sisodia said he destroyed phones as he wanted to upgrade them but nothing of that kind happened.

Manish Sisodia is being separately interrogated by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and Enforcement Directorate (ED) in the money laundering case linked to the Delhi liquor policy scam.

Sisodia was arrested by the CBI on February 26 and was later arrested by the ED in March 9 in Tihar Jail. Meanwhile, Delhi’s Rouse Avenue Court extended the judicial custody of Sisodia till April 5.

Gujarat HC imposes Rs 25,000 fine on Arvind Kejriwal for asking details of PM Modi's degree, says it's not needed

The Gujarat High Court on Friday revoked the 2016 order of the Central Information Commission (CIC) directing the Gujarat University to reveal the details of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s MA degree, stating that the information is not needed.

The court also imposed a fine of Rs 25,000 on Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for asking for details of PM Modi’s college degree. The HC directed Kejriwal to deposit the fine with the Gujarat State Legal Services Authority within four weeks.

Responding to HC’s order and the fine imposed, Kejriwal tweeted, Does the country not have the right to know how educated their PM is? They vehemently opposed showing the degree in the court. Why? And those who demand to see their degree will be fined? What is this happening? Illiterate or less educated PM is very dangerous for the country, he added.

Judge Biren Vaishnav, a single judge, quashed the Chief Information Commission’s (CIC) order directing the PMO, Gujarat University, and Delhi University PIOs to provide information about Modi’s graduate and postgraduate degrees.

The Gujarat High Court held that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s degree and post-graduate degree certificates are not required to be provided by the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO).

PM Modi’s election documents say he graduated from Gujarat University in 1978 and completed his Master’s degree from Delhi University in 1983.
