Amid a legal battle over the Gynvapi mosque and Mathura temple, the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) on Tuesday told a Delhi court that Qutub Minar is “not a place of worship” and alteration of the existing structure is not permissible. The ASI also claimed that Qutub Minar is a monument and no one can claim fundamental rights over such a structure. It added that “no right to worship can be granted at this place’’.
