Gyanvapi Verdict LIVE: Today, the Hindu side will present its objection in the court on the application of Anjuman Arrangements Masjid Committee's plea asking the judge to present the ASI report in a sealed cover which according to the Hindu side is a clear 'violation' of the Supreme Court judgement. The Anjuman Intezamia Masjid Committee on Monday asked the Court not to give the ASI report to any party to which the Hindu side is objecting. Earlier, Hindu side lawyer Advocate Vishnu Shankar Jain claimed that the survey report being presented in a selaed envelope is a "violation of the Supreme Court order" and said that the Hindu side has filed an application in the district court and sought a copy of the report.
