Hindu, Muslim sides reject Supreme Court's mediation proposal in Gyanvapi dispute; here's what they seek

The Hindu and Muslim parties in the Gyanvapi mosque dispute have declined the Supreme Court's attempt to facilitate an out-of-court settlement, indicating that they want the matter to be resolved through the judicial process. The Supreme Court had asked both sides to appear before the mediation centre of a Varanasi court on Tuesday to explore the possibility of an amicable resolution to the long-pending dispute. However, the mediation initiative has failed to gain the support of either side. https://ift.tt/3ABqIhz
