Ayodhya case: Hindu parties build consensus, robust case

New Delhi: The Supreme Court has completed hearing the arguments of the Hindu parties in the Ayodhya title dispute, the 70-year-old litigation for ownership of the 2.77-acre Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid land. During the daily hearings in the case over the past 16 days, the Hindu groups toiled hard to building a robust case in their favour, though frictions emerged, but the queries of the judges on the Constitution bench, gave them a handle to stay the course.

The overarching framework of their arguments included — the origin and essence of Hindu beliefs, archeological evidence claiming the mosque was built on the ruins of Hindu temple and absence of historical evidence establishing the existence of Babri Masjid. Senior advocate C.S. Vaidyanathan challenged the Allahabad High Court judgement, which gave one-third portion of the disputed site to Muslims, and said the deity and his birthplace cannot be partitioned. “A Hindu temple and mosque cannot co-exist,” Vaidyanathan categorically told the apex court.
