The Uttar Pradesh Sunni Waqf Board has announced that it will not file a review petition challenging the recent Ram Janmabhoomi case judgment of the Supreme Court, reports India Today.
As per the judgment, the entire disputed site in Ayodhya will go to the Hindus for the construction of a Ram temple, while five-acre land has separately been awarded for the construction of a new mosque in a different part of the city. The Sunni Waqf board has still not commented whether this change of stance will mean it will accept the separate plot of land.
However, the ability of the former to file a review petition is cast in doubt as it is not a party to the case, although the latter is.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
