Video of Puja performed at Gyanvapi Mosque Basement

A puja was performed in the 'Vyas Tehkana' or the southern cellar of the Gyanvapi structure in Varanasi on Wednesday night, hours after a court allowed the resumption of a practice set to have been discontinued three decades back.

The prayers were performed at 3am for the first time in 31 years in the southern cellar of the mosque.

On Wednesday, Varanasi District judge AK Vishvesha on Wednesday said Shailendra Kumar Pathak Vyas, who moved the



court for permission for prayers, and a Kashi Vishwanath trust-appointed priest-appointed will be allowed to enter the premises.
