'There is freedom of worship'; allowing puja in Gyanvapi Masjid is painful: Jifri Muthukkoya Thangal 

KOZHIKODE: Jifri Muthukkoya Thangal said that allowing puja in Gyanvapi Masjid is painful and added that this is a judgment that would disrupt secularism. Legal proceedings will be done. There is an attempt to create a fight with each other on this issue, but Samasta is not ready for it. He said that the subsidiary organizations of Samasta should work to strengthen Samasta.

'There is freedom of worship. There are laws that exist in the country. The permission given to perform puja at Gyanvapi Masjid should not be a violation of religious harmony. Samasta is thinking how to stand against it when the legal system is creating such difficulties. Communal issues or divisions are not Samasta's position," said Jifri Muthukkoya Thangal.

Varanasi district court has allowed Hindus to perform puja at Gyanvapi Masjid. The Varanasi District Court allowed Pujas to be performed in front of the 10 sealed vaults below the mosque. Pujas were held there according to this. The court process was after considering the petition of the Hindu sect.
