Wrong.
For someone who calls herself an expert,this smacks of ignorance & poor understanding.
Gyanvapi was NEVER a Mosque. In official revenue records, it was ALWAYS a Hindu temple
Hindu worship has ALWAYS been performed within disputed site & it never lost its Hindu character
For any structure to be a valid "Mosque", it has to be on WAQF land.
Gyanvapi is NOT on WAQF land. Not then, not now.
In 1936, Deen Muhammad filed a suit claiming that Gyanvapi was WAQF property & demanding Muslim be given right to pray.
Why?
Because Muslims had NO RIGHT!
In response, the Government said:
"The entire plot on which the disputed structure stands was NEVER a Mosque".
"The disputed structure was never stamped with character of WAQF".
"The Hindu worship was never stopped inside Gyanvapi"
"Hindus are the owners of the entire land"
Further, the Government said:
"Inspite of the fact that the temple was demolished in haphazard manner and a construction raised over it, no functioning mosque was constructed and Gyanvapi is NOT a mosque by any stretch of imagination.
The Judge dismissed the Muslim petition.
Deen Muhammad filed another petition in Allahabad high court, which was also dismissed in 1942.
Therefore, by the law of land, Gyanvapi is not a mosque. The legal existence of Gyanvapi was never recognised.
The plot was registered as 'Shri Kashi Vishveshwar' in revenue records
Here a question must be asked.
Why was Deen Muhammad asking for right of Muslims to pray inside Gyanvapi in 1936?
Because the Govt back then did not allow Muslims to pray inside Gyanvapi.
But the worship of Goddess Shringar Gauri was taking place within the disputed structure
