 It will also be decided in the court whether the Place of Worship (Special Provisions) Act, 1991 is applicable in the Gyanvapi case or not.  There is also a possibility that the discussion may start soon on the report of the survey of Gyanvapi campus conducted by the team of Advocate Commissioner.  Before the hearing, a big statement of Muslim side's lawyer Abhay Nath Yadav has come.  He said that first it should be decided whether the matter is maintainable or not?
 One side claims that it is a Shivling, regarding this solid structure of stone found in the Vajukhana located at the Gyanvapi Mosque.  The other side claims that it is an old fountain.

 On May 20, a three-judge bench of the Supreme Court transferred the Gyanvapi case to the Varanasi district judge's court.  The bench of Justice DY Chandrachud, Justice Surya Kant and Justice PS Narasimha had clearly said in the 51-minute hearing that the matter is with us but first it should be heard in the Varanasi District Court.
 The court said that the district judge will complete his hearing in 8 weeks.  Till then the directions given during the hearing on May 17 will continue.  After the order of the Supreme Court, on May 21, the letter related to the Gyanvapi case from the court of Civil Judge Senior Division Ravi Kumar Diwakar was transferred to the court of the District Judge.  On May 17, the Supreme Court had said three big things in its order.
 First- The place claiming to be Shivling should be secured.
 Second- Muslims should not be stopped from offering Namaz.
 Third- The order to offer Namaz to only 20 people is no longer applicable.  That is, these three instructions will be applicable for the next 8 weeks.  There will be no change in this.
