Latest India Political News Live Updates: Varanasi Court to hear Gyanvapi Masjid matter on May 26
Supreme Court on Tuesday will hear a petition challenging the survey of Varanasi's Gynavapi Mosque.

The court-ordered videography survey of the Gyanvapi Masjid complex, which had been ongoing for the third day, came to an end on Monday amid tight security. The survey of the mosque complex began around 8:00 am and ended at about 10:15 am.

Supreme Court on Tuesday will hear a petition challenging the survey of Varanasi’s Gynavapi Mosque. The plea filed by the Anjuman Masjid Committee against the Varanasi Court’s order requiring the survey of the Gyanvapi mosque will be heard by a bench chaired by Justice DY Chandrachud tomorrow.

While conducting a survey, lawyer Vishnu Jain claimed a big victory for the Hindu side as the shivling was found on the premises of the mosque. He said the shivling was found inside the well which was used for the wuzu.

Wuzu is a type of ritual purification in the Islamic religion for cleansing parts of the body. The 4 Fardh acts of Wudu consist of washing the face, and arms, then wiping the head and the feet with water.

After the survey was completed, the Varanasi court ordered the District Magistrate, Kaushal Raj Sharma, to seal the area where the shivling had been found. The court stated in its order that the Shivling discovery is crucial evidence and has ordered the CRPF commandant to secure the premises and prevent Muslims from entering.

According to sources, there is no order to stop the namaz in the mosque, and the district administration is reviewing the order.

Advocate Hari Shankar Jain requested that the premises be secured after a Shivling was found inside. Another Hindu lawyer, Madan Mohan Yadav, stated that the Shivling is 12 feet by 8 inches in diameter and is facing the same direction that Nandi is.

Gyanvapi Mosque Row

The Gyanvapi Mosque, which is located next to the Kashi Vishwanath Temple in Varanasi, is currently facing a legal battle.  A Varanasi court has ordered the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) to investigate the structure of the Gyanvapi Masjid.

On April 18, 2021, five Delhi-based women, Rakhi Singh, Laxmi Devi, Sita Sahu, and others filed a petition with the court, requesting permission to perform daily prayers before Hindu deity idols on the court’s outer walls. They also attempted to prevent the opponents from causing any harm to the idols.

Madhya Pradesh: PM Modi lays foundation stone for projects worth Rs 19,000 crore in Gwalior

Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid foundation stones for projects worth more than Rs 19,000 crore in poll-bound Madhya Pradesh on Monday. Addressing a gathering in Gwalior, PM Modi said that their target is to ensure Madhya Pradesh emerges as one of the top three states, adding that the vote of the people of the state will help them achieve this goal. 

He claimed that people who had 60 years could not bring development and always played with the sentiments of the poor and divided the society on the basis of caste. Asserting that the opposition have hatred towards growth because of their politics, PM Modi underlined that Madhya Pradesh has faith in the double engine government which means double development of the state. 

He further noted that the next five years would be crucial for Madhya Pradesh’s development and that the double engine government is necessary in the state. He mentioned that nearly 2.25 lakh families will enter into their new homes before Dussehra, Dhanteras and Diwali this year in Madhya Pradesh.

The Prime Minister stated that under the government of vikas-virodhi (apparently referring to opposition), law and order collapses. He noted that beheading took place openly in Rajasthan. He asserted that in states ruled by the opposition, crime and corruption have increased.

PM Modi underscored that the double engine government brought Madhya Pradesh among the top 10 states in terms of development. In addition, he hailed that Gwalior-Chambal has given bravehearts for the security of the country. 

Prime Minister Narendra Modi further guaranteed that India will be one of the top three economies in the world in the next few years. The Legislative Assembly election is scheduled to be carried out in Madhya Pradesh in or before November 2023. Earlier in the day, PM Modi addressed a rally in poll bound Rajasthan.

Rahul Gandhi

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi visited to the Punjab’s Golden Temple today. Rahul Gandhi participated in kar sewa after making prayers at the Golden Temple. He was observed washing dishes alongside other party members and volunteers from the Gurudwara.

He will stay the night in the city, according to a representative of Congress.

Let’s respect his privacy because this is a personal and spiritual visit from him. Request that none of the party’s employees show up in person for this visit. Amarinder Singh Raja Waring, the head of the Punjab Congress, wrote earlier in the day on X, formerly known as Twitter. He also added, you all can express your support in spirit and see him the next time.

The arrest of MLA Sukhpal Singh Khaira has caused a rift between the Congress and the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), which is why Rahul Gandhi is in Amritsar.

Sukhpal Singh Khaira, a Congress leader, was detained by the Punjab police last week on suspicion of taking part in money laundering and narcotics trafficking.

The Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann and the AAP have both been called thirsty for blood by the Congress leader. He said, he won’t be shocked if he gets me physically eliminated as well.

According to the AAP government, Khaira was arrested as a result of fresh evidence in a 2015 case.

The national leadership of the AAP and the Congress may support the INDIA alliance, but Khaira’s arrest has exposed regional rivalries that may make it challenging for the two to cooperate.

The release of the video coincides with Rahul Gandhi expanding his network of supporters in advance of the Lok Sabha elections. The Congress leader was recently spotted performing the part of a farmer and engaging in crop transplantation. Later, he tried the coolie and even tried his hand at carrying passengers baggage on his head. Most recently, he even gave carpentry a try as well.

Among the OBCs, Yadavs comprise 14.26% of the surveyed population, Kushwaha 4.27% and Kurmi 2.87%.

Speaking about the caste survey report, Union Minister Giriraj Singh mentioned that the caste census will do nothing more than spreading confusion among the poor and public of the state. He added that the Bihar government should have given a report card that Nitish Kumar ruled the state fr 18 years and Lalu Yadav ruled the state for 15 years but they did not develop the state.

Earlier today Chief Minister Nitish Kumar said he plans to call all nine parties that are part of the ruling coalition, including Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav’s Rashtriya Janata Dal, to discuss next steps, which could include dealing with decisions to increase OBC quotas at 27 per cent.

Reports said that around 2.64 lakh enumerators fanned out across the state, documenting the details of 29 million registered households on 17 socio-economic criteria, ranging from employment, education, marital status, land holding and property ownership and caste. Enumerators will have to choose between 214 pre-registered castes that have been allotted to individual codes.
