In an interview to the news agency ANI, the UP CM said, “Inside Gyanvapi, there are deity statues, and Hindus did not place them there.
If we call it a mosque, there will be a dispute. The government wants a resolution to the Gyanvapi dispute.”
Yogi added that there has been a “historical mistake” by the Muslim side, and thus, they should step forward for its resolution.
Furthermore, he questioned, “If Gyanvapi is a mosque, then what was a trident doing there?”
The UP CM’s interview comes even as the Allahabad high court is set to deliver a verdict on a plea against a Varanasi district court order directing the Archaeological Survey of India to conduct a survey to determine if the Gyanvapi mosque was built upon a temple.
The high court has reserved its order till August 3.
