Varanasi Mosque Land Dispute: Ganj Shahida Committee Challenges Railway's Claims, Vows Legal Battle

A notice dated June 12 warned the Ganj Shahida mosque in Varanasi to demolish itself by June 20, citing a dismissed 1991 civil suit. The mosque committee disputes this, arguing the notice lacks authenticity and the suit concerned adjacent land, not the mosque itself. They claim historical records prove the mosque predates the railway. The committee plans to challenge the notice in the high court.
