According to counsel for the Hindu side, Vishnu Shankar Jain, the ASI survey report on the Gyanvapi complex in Varanasi reveals that the mosque was built on the remains of a pre-existing temple. Jain stated that the report, consisting of 839 pages, provides sufficient evidence of the temple's existence before the mosque was constructed. Earlier, 11 individuals from both the Hindu and Muslim sides had applied in court to obtain the ASI survey report.
