The Supreme Court has opted not to issue a stay on the “scientific survey” of the Bhojshala complex located in Madhya Pradesh’s Dhar district.

The excavation process is currently going on at the Bhojshala/Kamal Maula mosque complex in Dhar district of Madhya Pradesh as part of its court-mandated survey being conducted by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI).

As per an ASI order of April 7, 2003, Hindus are allowed to worship inside the Bhojshala complex every Tuesday, while Muslims are allowed to offer namaz at the site on Fridays.

The ASI team has noticed some beams under the foundation at a place during their survey, sources said, adding that this might lead the team to dig up more places to draw a firm conclusion.

Ashish Goyal and Gopal Sharma representing the Hindu community, and Abdul Samad representing the Muslims, accompany the ASI team during the survey.
