The city of Varanasi, known for its rich cultural heritage and spiritual significance, is now witnessing a significant twist in the case of the enlightening mosque. On Thursday, a renowned Buddhist guru filed a petition in the Supreme Court, demanding a separate identity for the enlightening mosque, distinct from Hindu temples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The controversy over the Varanasi enlightening mosque has been making headlines for months, and this recent development has added a new dimension to the already heated debate. The Buddhist community, led by Bhante Sumit Ratan<\/a>, the National President of the All India Buddhist Society, claims that the mosque has historical connections to Buddhist monasteries, and the excavation at the site will reveal remnants of the ancient Buddhist heritage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The petition highlights a concern shared by the Buddhist community that many Buddhist monasteries across the country were demolished in the past to make way for the construction of Hindu temples. This plea seeks to acknowledge and preserve the authenticity of Buddhist heritage and prevent further loss of cultural identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The case has captured the attention of historians, archaeologists, and cultural enthusiasts alike. The possibility of unearthing ancient Buddhist remains in the heart of Varanasi has sparked curiosity and interest in India’s diverse historical narrative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"Buddhist](\"https:\/\/newsprotv.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/OIF.jpg\")
