More than 1200 people reached Gyanvapi Mosque in Varanasi to offer Namaz on Friday. The situation became such that for the first time Gyanvapi became houseful. A huge crowd gathered outside also. After this the Masajid Committee immediately closed the main gate. People were appealed on loudspeakers to offer Namaz in other mosques. On the other hand, in view of Friday, high alert was put in Varanasi since morning. A large number of commandos and forces have been deployed outside Gyanvapi as a precautionary measure.
A member of the Anjuman Inazaniya Masajid Committee, says that the capacity of Gyanvapi is about 700 people. The space inside is full. That’s why no more people come to Gyanvapi.
Before proceeding further in the news, take part in the poll and also answer the question.
As many worshipers arrived, they usually did not come
Before the start of the survey of Gyanvapi before the court, usually not so many people used to come here to offer Namaz. Since the survey, a lot of crowd is gathering here. Local people told that when the survey started on May 6, for the first time a large number of worshipers had come. After this, a lot of crowd has been seen on Jume today. Earlier, only about 400 people used to come to offer Namaz.

Appealed in the morning – not many people come here
After the survey controversy in Gyanvapi, there was already an expectation of more crowd coming on Jume. In this regard, SM Yasin, Joint Secretary of Anjuman Inazaniya Masajid Committee, which oversees Gyanvapi, appealed to the people of Muslim society to come in minimum numbers.
More than a thousand people reached on Friday to offer Namaz in Gyanvapi. The crowd grew so much that there was no space left inside. Entry was given by putting a line.
Yasin said, “We have appealed to the people not to come to Gyanvapi Masjid in large numbers, instead, offer Friday prayers in mosques near their homes.”
On the other hand, the officers of the police-administration also kept in touch with the people of Muslim society. Don’t get messed up of any kind. For this, the police and the Local Intelligence Unit (LIU) are on alert mode within a kilometer radius of the Kashi Vishwanath Temple-Gyanvapi range.
The number of people offering Namaz was seen more today than daily. The crowd of so many people gathered that the administration and the Masajid Committee were forced to close the gate.
More than 1,000 policemen deployed
Actually, the Vazukhana and the toilet were sealed by the order of the court. After that today was the first Zuma. Police officers patrolled sensitive areas with mixed population, including the chowk. Due to the sealing of Gyanvapi’s Vazukhana, two drums of 1,000 liters were kept filled with water by the administration for the prayers.
Commandos have been deployed around Kashi Vishwanath complex and Gyanvapi. After the survey and on the first Friday prayers, an appeal is being made for peace.
Vajukhana was sealed after the survey
A commission was constituted on the orders of the court to survey the Gyanvapi campus. On the last day of the survey i.e. on May 16, the Hindu side had claimed to be a Shivling regarding the concrete structure of the stone in the Vazukhana of the Gyanvapi Masjid. Based on the request of the Hindu side, the court ordered the sealing of the vazukhana. The Muslim side says that there is no Shivling in the Vazukhana, but an old fountain.
Around 1,000 police and PAC personnel patrolled the populated areas within a kilometer radius of the Kashi Vishwanath Temple-Gyanvapi range.
