On Friday, the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) sought 15 more days from Varanasi court here to submit its report of a scientific survey of the disputed Gyanvapi structure.

The ASI has moved an application in the court of Varanasi District Judge A K Vishvesh, saying that though the survey work has been completed, the technical reports are still awaited and therefore, the additional time has been sought; according to the Centre’s counsel Amit Srivastava.

On November 2, the ASI told the court that it had completed the survey, but it may take some more time to compile the report, along with the details of the equipment used in the survey work, following which additional time till November 17 was granted.

Earlier on October 5, the court had granted four more weeks to the ASI and said the duration of the survey would not be extended beyond this.
