After a sensational claim by Hindu petitioners that a "shivling" had been found in a pond at the Gyanvapi Masjid complex in Uttar Pradesh's Varanasi, a court today ordered it sealed. The "shivling" (symbol of Lord Shiva) was said to be found this morning, on the last day of the court-mandated filming of the mosque complex following a petition seeking access to pray at a shrine behind the mosque.
