Supreme Court to start final hearing on Ayodhya case today
New Delhi, Dec 5 (IBNS) : The Supreme Court will on Tuesday start the final hearing in the Ayodhya case, just a day ahead of the 25th anniversary of Babri mosque demolition, an event that came as a flash point over the contentious Ram Mandir issue, but refuses to die down till now casting a huge impact on the country's polity.
According to reports, a bench comprising of Chief Justice Dipak Misra, Justices Ashok Bhushan and Abdul Nazeer will take up the case which will have 13 appeals filed against the 2010 judgment of the Allahabad High Court.
The court, in 2010, had decided that the disputed land of 2.77 acre will be divided in three-way among the parties — the Sunni Waqf Board, the Nirmohi Akhara, and the Lord Ram Lalla. The court ordered each party a third of the land at the site.
But calling the verdict "strange, the Supreme Court, in May 2011, stayed the operation of the order. It observed that the decree of partition was not sought by the parties… not prayed by anyone”.
The people who are fighting over the dispute has decided to resolve the matter, ‘once and for all’. Mahant Dinendra Das, Haji Mehboob and Iqbal Ansari, who have the piece in the Ayodhya disputed land are from three different corners of Ayodhya. And all they want the Supreme Court to do is to “resolve this once and for all” and “let Ayodhya and the country move on”.
Recently a group of civil rights activists also moved the apex court seeking intervention in the Ayodhya dispute and urged it to consider the issue saying it is not just a dispute over property but has several other aspects which would have far-reaching effects on the “secular fabric of the country”.
