Kashi Vishwanath Temple

A petition was filed in a court here last Tuesday seeking an Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) survey of the entire premises of the Gyanvapi complex, and not only the "shivling" as ordered by the Allahabad High Court.

Speaking to OpIndia, Sunil Verma, CEO of the temple administration, termed this record count as a government figure.

Kashi Vishwanath temple administration has clarified that no such fees are announced for 'sparsh darshan'.

Within a year of the inauguration of the Kashi Vishwanath Dham corridor, the iconic temple saw a record-breaking five-fold increase in donations from devotees

Security has been tightened in the area considering the verdict in the Gyanvapi to be pronounced by the Varanasi court.

The Varanasi District court has ordered that the plea filed by the Hindu side seeking right to worship at Shringar Gauri Sthal inside the disputed structure is maintainable.

PM Modi presented Argentina's President Alberto Fernández with a Nandi-themed Dokra Art from Chattisgarh.

An anonymous donor had donated 60 kgs of gold to the Kashi Vishwanath temple months before the inauguration of the Kashi Vishwanath Corridor in December 2021.

Last month, a Shivling was found submerged in the wuzukhana, the place where people who offer namaz, the Islamic prayer, clean their dirty hands and feet and gargle water as a cleansing ritual, inside the complex where the disputed structure called 'Gyanvapi mosque' is.

RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat said that while they support the Gyanvapi move, they are against raising disputes over other mosques
