A top leader of the rightwing Vishwa Hindu Parishad on Sunday demanded that the disputed Wuzukhana area at the Gyanvapi mosque be allowed to be used for worship by the Hindu community.

Speaking to newswire ANI on Sunday, Alok Kumar urged the court to grant permission for the commencement of puja in the Wuzukhana area. Additionally, he appealed to the Muslim community to respectfully relocate the Gyanvapi mosque to an alternative location, handing over the original site to Hindus for the construction of a temple.
