District Judge Lists Gyanvapi-Linked Matters for Hearing From 22 September

District Judge Sanjeev Shukla has listed Gyanvapi-linked matters — including the Shringar Gauri regular darshan-puja plea and issues tied to the Archaeological Survey of India’s survey of sealed cellars — for hearing from 22 September 2026, with parties directed to appear, court reporting from the Monday listing said. The date is distinct from the separate 1991 title suit track already marked for 18 September on this desk’s earlier file. Mixing the two calendars would mislead readers on which proceeding moves when.

The Shringar Gauri plea concerns regular worship access claims at the complex. The ASI cellar-survey strand concerns sealed underground spaces and what survey work has recorded there. Both travel under the District Judge’s cause list rather than under the 1991 suit’s separate timetable. Ordering parties to appear on 22 September keeps the matters alive on a fixed date instead of an open adjournment fog.

A revised party-impleadment plea by Jaiprakash Rajbhar of Mahmoodpur, Cholapur, was among the procedural points reported as opposed by sides already on the record. Impleadment fights decide who gets a formal voice in the room. They are not rulings on darshan or on cellar findings. The desk records the opposition as a procedural fact, not as a preview of the September 22 outcome.

Security and crowd management around Gyanvapi listings remain a standing civic concern whenever a firm date approaches. Twenty-two September is far enough for parties to prepare and near enough for police and district administration to plan perimeter discipline. This article does not speculate on verdict language. It locks the next date and the matter labels.

Lawyers on both sides will use the intervening days to file whatever additional papers the court allows. That paper traffic is normal before a listed date. It is not a signal that the District Judge has pre-decided either the darshan plea or the cellar-survey follow-ups.

Readers following both Gyanvapi tracks should keep the dates separate: 18 September for the 1991 suit hearing already flagged on this site, 22 September for the District Judge’s Shringar Gauri and ASI cellar-survey matters. Same complex geography does not make them the same case file.

Temple-side and Anjuman Intazamia Masajid Committee positions will be argued on the date, not in a news preview. Harsh Mehra’s desk standard on this beat is date, forum, matter labels and procedural notes — without importing cable-channel conjecture into the body.

Court corridors will be quieter than television studios between now and that date, and that is how this file should stay.

Until 22 September arrives, the actionable public information is simple. District Judge Sanjeev Shukla has fixed the Shringar Gauri and ASI cellar-survey related matters for that day and told parties to be present. The 1991 suit stays on its own September 18 shelf. Anything beyond that waits for the courtroom, not for a thumbnail caption.
