Editorial

Of human beings, it is said that there are some who do not take an initiative for the fear of difficulties ahead; and others who do take an initiative but stop midway when confronted with hurdles; but the best men are they who never lose heart and follow the right path even when they are frequently interfered with by adversities. Such men are truly rare and are assets for the human race. They take birth once in aeons, so to say.

Shri Ashok Singhalji was one of such rare souls whose life is but a blessing for the entire mankind. He lived for humanity and died for humanity. Never caring for his personal comfort, he would incessantly endeavour to make better the lives of millions of deprived and the downtrodden. Hinduism for him wan an all encompassing phenomenon that was inclusive rather than exclusive. The clarity of vision and the selfless determination to get that vision translated as a reality into the life of one and all made Singhalji what he was.

He taught us how to transcend the barriers of ordinary human desires and ambitions and universalise one’s being for the welfare of one and all. Dharma for him was maryada of one’s own vis-à-vis others, and vice versa. Maryada Purushottam was his ideal; and through his fiery speeches he ignited the minds of millions who thereby came forward to dedicate for Lord Ram all that was theirs. It is solely on their strength that Singhalji raised the great structure of Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP), widening its frontiers much farther than what Swami Chinmayanandji might have foreseen; and cemented it with his dedication for the cause of Hinduism.

The strength of his words came from deeds which he would never publicise but keep on performing continuously for the welfare of Hindus in particular and the entire humanity in general. Establishing schools for the tribal or building temples for the erstwhile ‘untouchable’ persons in our society are only a few among several noble deeds of Singhalji who knew the true meaning of Dharma.

In an age where religion and politics are frequently interlinked to weave out a confusing social fabric so that one may be used for the other in an attempt to serve vested interests; Singhalji’s persona stands the tallest. He would often say that Dharma is all pervasive and should not be equated to narrower concepts like religion. This is why he would always keep a safe distance from politics.

For Hindus, Singhalji was an icon the equal of which we would perhaps never find. He commanded the respect of the Hindus world over. He lived for them and dreamt for them. His biggest dream was the construction of a grand temple at the Ram Janma Bhoomi in

Ayodhya. His faith in Dharma would convince him of the victory ahead; and he was eager to see that all necessary materials-be it the stones or other things- were there in place as if he had foreseen the day of victory which we so impatiently wait for.

In order to reintroduce the discourse on the propriety of construction of Ram Mandir, Singhalji had desired to hold a seminar at the national capital, New Delhi, on January 9-10, 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding success leaving its message far and wide except one thing that Singhalji was not there to see all this. However, the people devoted to the cause of Hinduism left no stone unturned to make the Seminar a success. Similarly he will not be there to see the Ram Mandir being constructed at the Shri Ram Janm Bhoomi; but millions and millions of those espousing his cause will certainly do.

The shattered hopes of Hindus may take a shape some day when a majestic temple is born out of those stones having Shri Ramlala Virajman at its garbh grih, that is, sanctum sanctorum. However, Singhalji has taught us not to lose heart and continue to do what is our Dharma in this regard; because the temple for Shri Ram ought to be built only on the strength of Dharma by means that are Dharmic and people who are truly Dharma parayana for Lord

Rama Himself is the embodiment of Dharma: रामो �व�हवान धम�:

Singhalji was a man of many worlds: Vedic to Scientific to Modern. Thus he had a vision that embraced many planes and extended to as many horizons. In the year 2007 he provided not only inspiration but also the resources for establishing Arundhati Vashishtha Anusandhan Peeth, a Centre for policy research in the light of Integral Humanism propounded by Pt. Deendayal Upadhyay, at his parental house Mahavir Bhawan, Allahabad. About the same time he also exhorted us to launch a national Journal on Indian Thought and Policy Research which came out in the year 2010 as The Journal of Indian Thought and Policy Research which is running in its sixth year now.

This issue of the Journal is dedicated to Singhalji and as such it shall include some of several thought provoking papers presented at the seminar mentioned above. His words and vision will continue to guide us in our endeavour to serve the cause of humanity which was so dear to him. In order to constantly remind ourselves of the vision of India cherished by Singhalji and to work to that end, the forthcoming issues of the Journal shall carry on a prominent place a photo of Singhalji accompanied by a piece of his inspiring thoughts.

Building the Sri Rama Temple in Ayodhya

The Legal Case

-Subramanian Swamy1

I

Sri Aurobindo said: “All great movements of life in India have begun with the new

spiritual thought and usually a new religious activity”. Even Jawaharlal Nehru ultimately at

the fag end of his life acknowledged this truth (in his foreword to one of Dr.Karan Singh’s

books) as follows: “It is significant to note that great political mass movements in India have

had a spiritual background behind them”.

A society based on dharma is vitally needed at this moment in our history, because

there is a dimension to the current national crisis, namely, the moral decay and the decline of

character in our society which if not stemmed, will slowly poison our nation to death.

This decay and decline is visible in every aspect of our life—politicians defecting for

office and cash, bureaucrats taking bribes, teachers selling exam questions, students passing

by cheating, businessmen adulterating products, lawyers cheating clients, doctors betraying

their patients etc. To some extent such degeneration is there in every society, but the

alarming aspect in India is the pace of this decay and the spread of it. Consequent to this

decay is the wave of dangerous cynicism amongst the youth.

This moral decay has to be stemmed. A renaissance of values in society has to take

place. How will this renaissance come about? And which leader shall be its instrument? For

this, a leader shall be one who is committed to an ideology and determined to implement an

agenda for renaissance.

In India, the majority is the conglomerate Hindu community which represents about

80% of the total Indian population, while minorities are constituted by Muslims (13%) and

Christians (3%). Sikhs, Jains, Parsis, and some other small religious groups, represent the

remaining four percent. But while Sri Rama is revered by Hindus as an avatara (incarnation);

the other religious groups also respect his nobility and moral courage. Thus Rama is an

eternal national icon for all Indians.

Thus re-building Sri Rama Temple in Ayodhya becomes a national goal. It must

however be accomplished legally and with maximum consensus. This Seminar is about how

it can be accomplished. The re-building of the Rama Temple is part of our renaissance. It

means righting a historical atrocity.

II

True and devout Hindus believe that Bhagvan Sri Rama was born in Ayodhya, the then

capital of a flourishing kingdom of the Suryavamsa dynasty. Rama is venerated as Maryada

Purushottam, and worshipped by Hindus of the north.

As an avatar of Vishnu, while it was first propagated by the Tamil saints known as

Nayanmars and Alwars who composed many hymns and songs dedicated to his divinity; in

the North, which later came to accept Rama as one, especially thanks to the saint Tulsidas,

the fervor for Rama worship is much more. In that sense, Sri Rama was the first truly

national king of India: supra region, supra varna or jati. That is why poet Iqbal called him

‘Imam-e-Hind’.

The exact spot of the palace where Rama was born has been, and remains, firmly

identified in the Hindu mind and is held as sacred. This is the very area where stood from

1528 AD till December 6, 1992 AD a structure that came to be known as Babri Masjid, put

up in 1528 AD by Babar’s commander Mir Baqi.

In fact, Baqi was a Shia Muslim, and hence he intended it to be a place for Shias to

read namaz. Today, interestingly, it is the Sunni Wakf Board, which entered the legal dispute

Page 11: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

11

as late as 1961, and has been litigating in the court claiming the title to the land on which the

structure once stood.

I call it a “structure” since it cannot be strictly called a mosque by Sunni edicts-

because it did not have the mandatory minarets and wazu [water pool]. That a Ram temple

existed and or that there is a sacred spot known as Ramjanmabhoomi is attested by many

ancient sources and by modern scientific methods.

In Skanda Purana1 the site is vividly described. Valmiki Ramayana also describes it

beautifully. Less than two decades before Mir Baqi carried out the horrible demolition of the

Ram Temple, Guru Nanak had visited the Ramjanmabhoomi and had darshan of Ramlala in

the mandir at the spot.

There are many commentaries on this visit which are a part of the Sikh scriptures. Guru

Nanak himself records the barbarity of Babar’s invasions [in Guru Granth Sahib at p.418]. In

Akbar’s time, Abul Fazal wrote the Ain-i-Akbari in which he describes Ayodhya fame as the

place of “Ram Chandra’s residence which in Treta age combined spiritual supremacy and

Kingship” [Tranlated by Col. H.S. Jarrett and published in Kolkata in 1891].

In Chapter X of the Report of the Archeological Survey of India, NW and Oudh

(1889), it is mentioned (p.67) that Babri Mosque “was built in AD 1528 by Mir Khan on the

very spot where the old temple of Janmasthan of Ram Chandra was standing.”

Hindus throughout foreign occupation of India have deeply held as sacred that exact

spot where the Babri Masjid once stood, as the fact is recorded in many official and judicial

proceedings. In 1885, for example, Mahant Raghubar Das in a Suit No 61/280 of 1885 filed

in the Court of the Faizabad Sub-Judge against the Secretary of State for India (who was

based in London), prayed for permission to build a temple on the chabutra outside the

mosque. His suit was dismissed on March 18, 1886.

However, in his Order the Sub-Judge, an Englishman, stated thus: “It is most

unfortunate that a Masjid should have been built on land specially held sacred by the Hindus.

1 See, Chapter X, Vaishnav Khand, ibid.

Page 12: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

12

But as the event occurred 358 years ago, it is too late now to remedy the grievance.” Since

the English as policy never sought to disturb the social status quo in India as evidenced, for

example, on the ‘Sati’ question, the Judge took the easy way out and dismissed the Suit.

It is now well established by GPRS-directed excavations done under the Allahabad

High Court monitoring and verification in 2002-2003, that a large temple did exist below

where that Babri Masjid structure once stood. Inscriptions found during excavations describe

it as a temple of Vishnu Hari who had killed the demon king Dasanan [Ravana].

The Sunni Wakf Board does not accept these findings as of any meaning or of any

consequences. It does not however matter if all this was indeed so or not, since under Section

295 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) it is prescribed that “Whoever destroys, damages or

defiles any place of worship, or any object held sacred by any class of persons, with the

intention of thereby insulting the religion of any class of persons or with the knowledge that

any class of persons is likely to consider such destruction, damage or defilement as an insult

to their religion, shall be punishable with imprisonment of either description for a term

which may extend to two years, or with fine, or with both.”

That is, an offence under criminal law is committed (by the defilement, etc of a thing)

if a body of persons hold something as sacred. It does not matter if the majority does or does

not hold so. Nor can a court decide what is sacred and what is not. Only a body of persons

can identify what is sacred. The offence under Section 295 IPC is cognizable and non-

bailable, as well as non-compoundable.

The fundamental question before us is thus this: Can a temple and a masjid be

considered on par as far as sacredness is concerned? Relying on two important court

judgments that hold the field today, the answer is: NO. A masjid is not an essential part of

Islam, according to a majority judgment of a Constitution Bench of India’s Supreme Court.

In the famous Ismail Farooqui vs Union of India1, the Supreme Court observed: “It has

been contended that a mosque enjoys a particular position in Muslim law and once a mosque

is established and prayers are offered in such a mosque, the same remains for all time to 1 (1994) 6 SCC 376.

Page 13: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

13

come a property of Allah…and any person professing Islamic faith can offer prayer in such a

mosque, and even if the structure is demolished, the place remains the same where namaz

can be offered”1.

The Constitution Bench rebutted this contention stating: “The correct position may be

summarized thus: Under Mohammed law applicable in India, the title to a mosque can be lost

by adverse possession…A mosque is not an essential part of the practice of the religion of

Islam and namaz (prayer) can be offered anywhere, even in the open. Accordingly, its

acquisition is not prohibited by the provisions in the Constitution of India.”2

Thus, any Government depriving the Muslims of the Babri Masjid by an order of

acquisition is within law, if the government decides to do so in the interest of public order,

public health and morality (Article 25 of the Constitution). The position in Islamic law is

even clearer: in Saudi Arabia the authorities demolish mosque to lay roads and build

apartment building. Even the mosque where Islam’s Prophet Mohammed used to pray was

demolished!

But then what of a temple? Is it in the same category as the mosque in our

jurisprudence? When I was Union Law and Justice Minister in 1990-91, this question of the

status of a temple-even if in ruins or without worship-had come up before me in a case of a

smuggled-out bronze Nataraja statue which was up for auction in London.

Earlier the Government of India, when Rajiv Gandhi was PM, had decided to file a

case in the London trial court in 1986 for recovery. The Nataraja statue had by then been

traced to a temple in ruins in Pathur, in Thanjavur district. A farmer named Ramamoorthi had

in 1976 accidently unearthed it while digging mud with a spade near his hut.

When the news spread, touts of an antique dealer by name Ahmed Hussein reached him

and paid a small sum and smuggled it out to London, where in 1982 they sold it to Bumper

Development Corporation Private Limited. In turn, the said Corporation sent it to the British

1 See, para 80, ibid. 2 See, para 82.

Page 14: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

Museum for appraisal and possible purchase. By then the Government of India was onto it

and asked the UK government to take action.

The Nataraja idol was seized by London Metropolitan Police, and thus the Bumper

Development Corporation sued the Police in court for recovery but lost the case. An appeal

was filed in the Queens Bench (i.e., our High Court level) which was dismissed on April, 17

1989. So, the Bumper Corporation went to the House of Lords (our Supreme Court level at

that time). On February 13, 1991 when I was Law Minister, the judgment came, which is

truly landmark, dismissing Bumper’s final appeal.1

The House of Lords upheld the Indian government’s position that because of the prana

prathista puja, a temple is owned by the deity, in this case Lord Shiva, and any Hindu can

litigate on behalf of the deity as a de facto trustee. The Bench consisting of Justices Purchas,

Nourse and Leggatt concluded: “We therefore hold that the temple is acceptable as party to

these proceedings and that it is as such entitled to sue for the recovery of the Nataraja.”2

Thus, even if a temple is in ruins (as the ASI had found the Thanjavur temple) or

destroyed (as was Ram Temple in the Babri Masjid area), any Hindu can sue on behalf of

Lord Rama in court for recovery! No such ruling exists for a mosque for the simple reason

that a mosque is just a facilitation centre for reading namaz, and has no essentiality for Islam

as a religion. It can be demolished and/or shifted as any building can be; as is being done

today in Arab countries and Pakistan.

That is, the Ram Temple on Ramjanmabhoomi has an overriding claim to the site than

any mosque. This is the fundamental truth in the Ayodhya dispute. This truth will apply, for

example, to Kashi Vishvanath and Sri Krishna Janmbhoomi temple sites as well.

ROAD MAP FOR BUILDING THE RAM TEMPLE

Therefore, what should be the road map or blueprint for our government to deliver on

the BJP’s 2014 Manifesto promise? The following steps may be taken by 2016 to re-build the

Ram Temple in Ayodhya and fulfill the commitment to the electorate:

(i) Appoint a former Chief Justice of India, such as, for example,

CJI S.H. Kapadia as the Executor. The office of the Executor may liaise with

a designated Minister such as, again for example, General V.K. Singh.

(ii) The designated Minister may issue Notice to the Babri Masjid

Muthwali who is a hereditary supervisor, and is living in India, asking him to

formally agree to withdraw his claim to the Ramjanmabhoomi, and offer him

an alternative site for a masjid to be built at public expense, across the Saryu

River.

(iii) Call a meeting of Islamic clerics, Indian and foreign, and seek

their endorsement. The Supreme Court may then be approached for disposing

off all pending SLPs and Writ Petitions related to the Ramjanmabhoomi.

(iv) If such an endorsement is not forthcoming then the

Government should move an enabling Bill in Parliament and have it passed.

(v) Create a Ram Temple Re-Building Committee on the Somnath

temple model, with Shri Ashok Singhal of VHP as Chairperson1.

(vi) Begin construction of the Ram Temple on an auspicious date in

2016.

But in the meantime there is no need to torture and humiliate the bhaktas and devotees

who come to worship at the present makeshift Ramlala Mandir. They get no basic facilities

of drinking water, shoe/chappal racks, toilets and parking spaces. Yet a whopping entry fee is

collected from the devotees.

The question is whether these restrictions are violative of the fundamental rights of

worship under Article 25 of the Constitution, subject of course to reasonable restrictions of

public order, health and morality, and also of fundamental right to hygiene [ AIR 1952 SC

196 & AIR 1999 SC 92]

This Hon’ble Court (in the Farooqui case: (1994) 6 SCC 361) had permitted worship in

the makeshift temple of Ramlala, subject to maintaining the status quo on the disputed site.

But what the scope of this direction to maintain status quo is, has also been made clear

by this Hon’ble Court1, i.e., the mandate given to the Receiver in Section 7(2) of the

Acquisition of Certain Areas at Ayodhya Act, 1993 to ensure that status quo as of January 3,

1993 in the disputed area is maintained. The area of dispute has been defined with clarity in

the aforesaid judgment2.

But in the name of maintaining the status quo, the Receiver and the UP administration

have imposed the most unreasonable and arbitrary restrictions on the worship itself,

tantamount to sacrilege, and causes gross inconvenience to the lakhs of devotees coming

from all over India for darshan.

That whether the present restrictions are beyond this Hon’ble Court’s mandate was

gone into by a Special Bench of three Hon’ble judges of the Allahabad High Court on the

Writ Petition No. 3067 of 1994 filed by D.N. Agarwal, praying for modification of

unreasonable and arbitrary restrictions on devotees placed by the Receiver on the access to,

and worship of the Ramlala idol at the temple in the disputed area.

The Hon’ble High Court while allowing the Writ Petition, passed an order (vide Order

dated February 23, 1996) detailing the various necessary modifications in the restrictions.

This was stayed by this Hon’ble Court on a petition filed not by the Receiver, but by an

interlocutor Syed Hashmi in1996. I have challenged this by way an Interlocutory Application

[IA].

The issue in this IA thus arises from this stay or injunction granted by this Hon’ble

Court in 1996, and which injunction is continuing till date.

1 (1994) 6 SCC 361 at 394. 2 See, para 24 at p 395, ibid.

17

In my affidavit I have therefore prayed that the injunction on the directions of the

Allahabad High Court Special Bench be vacated because the present restrictions imposed by

the Receiver are arbitrary, unreasonable, oppressive and violative of Article 25 of the

Constitution. In fact even the Hon’ble High Court observed that the Receiver implicitly

admitted the same.

In a nutshell, it is an admitted fact that there is a makeshift Ramlala Mandir, on the site

of the Ram Chabutra which site was for centuries inside the perimeter of the now demolished

Babri mosque.

This Hon’ble Court had [vide (1994) 6 SCC 361] appointed a Receiver for the disputed

area but permitted the continued worship at this temple, subject to maintaining status quo as

of January 3, 1993.

In the name of the status quo, the appointed receiver has imposed restrictions on the

access to the temple and the mode of worship.

The Hon’ble three-judge Bench of the Allahabad High Court, after hearing a Writ

Petition, passed a detailed Order in February 1996 holding these restrictions as arbitrary and

unreasonable, and directed the Receiver to implement restrictions which the Hon’ble Bench

stated to be reasonable.

While the Receiver did not appeal against that Order; but as stated above an intervenor

in 1996 filed an SLP and got an ad interim injunction which continues today. No proceedings

followed thereafter till I revived the issue by way of an IA in 2009.

The question is whether the restrictions on worship and access imposed by the Receiver

bear any nexus to the scope of status quo in the area of dispute, and whether these restrictions

are violative of the fundamental rights of worship under Article 25 of the Constitution,

subject of course to reasonable restrictions of public order, health and morality, and also of

fundamental right to hygiene1.

What the scope of this direction to maintain status quo is, has also been made clear by

this Hon’ble Court1 i.e., the mandate given to the Receiver in Section 7(2) of the Acquisition

of Certain Areas at Ayodhya Act, 1993 to ensure that status quo as of January 3, 1993 in the

disputed area is maintained. The area of dispute has been defined with clarity in the aforesaid

judgment in para 24 on page 395.

IV

At the outset, it may usefully also be recognized that puja to Ramlala at the disputed

site has already been permitted in a restricted form by this Hon’ble Court2.

It was held in the said judgment that:

“However, confining the exercise of the right of worship of the Hindu community to its

reduced form within the disputed area as on 7-1-1993, lesser than that exercised till the

demolition on 6-12-1992, by the freeze enacted in Section 7(2) {of Act No.33 of 1933}

appears to be reasonable and just in view of the fact that miscreants who demolished the

mosque are suspected to be persons professing to practice Hindu religion. The Hindu

community must, therefore, bear the cross on its chest for the misdeed of miscreants

reasonably suspected to belong to their religious fold”.3

I do not challenge the vires of directing a restricted form of worship, but only the

unreasonable restrictions in the name of security and status quo imposed on devotees to

perform the restricted worship. At some stage, I however reserve the right, on some other

appropriate occasion, to challenge the judicially delivered dictum that the Hindu community”

must bear the cross” for the Babri Masjid demolition. Thereby, it is obvious that Hindus are

not treated evenhandedly: it is pertinent to note that there is a reasonable prima facie

presumption that the Babri Masjid itself (and indeed a large number of mosques all over

India) was constructed after the original temple was demolished by Muslims.

1 See, [(1994) 6 SCC 361 at 394]. 2See, (1994) 6 SCC 361: para 47at p 406 and para 53 at 409. 3See, para 53 at ‘C’, ibid.

Specifically, re: the Babri Masjid, this is a finding of a Commission of archeological

experts that was set up on the directions of the Hon’ble High Court , and this forms part of

the record of the proceedings in the main title suit in progress before the Lucknow Bench of

the Hon’ble High Court. But it would be very wrong from that to extrapolate that the Muslim

community must therefore “bear the cross on its chest for the misdeed of miscreants

reasonably suspected to belong to their religious fold”.

Most recently I had visited the Ram Janma Bhoomi shrine; and was appalled at

the unnecessary hardships and indignities to which devout Hindu pilgrims are being

subjected by crude police procedures, whereby devotees are denied even the performance of

archakas at the temple. Full details of the harassment and denial of amenities, are in and have

been commented on in the Allahabad High Court judgment.

Clearly by all objective assessments, these measures are unreasonable restrictions on

the right to the permitted worship. On making enquiries, I was told that these were inevitable

under the status quo orders of this Hon’ble Court and that these must last while the suits

thereon were heard in the Hon’ble High Court.

In the matter of Dr M Ismail Farooqui etc.versus Union of India and others1 this

Hon’ble Court has held that a mosque is not an essential or integral part of Islam. Hence, a

mosque can be demolished in certain circumstances under secular law, and some other site

can be used for reading namaz2.

That is not the position vis–a-vis a temple in which the idol has been consecrated by

prana prathista puja and built according to agama shastras. The Rama idol on the chabutra

(the chabutra was built within the complex during Akbar’s regime) is one such consecrated

idol.

Also notable historians have held that the temple earlier to that, of which remains are

still there in the archeological records, must have been built in the days of Raja Vikramaditya

of Ujjain, hence of heritage value besides being an essential part of Hindu religion.

1(1994) 6 SCC 394. 2 See, para 70, 78,& 80, ibid.

Re-building a Sri Rama Temple legally and by consensus building amongst the vast

majority of the people, will have a profound implication for Indian society.

Therefore under law the Union Government can acquire the Babri Masjid site by a

public notification, and urge the Muslim community to agree to shift the building of a new

masjid to some other site well beyond and across the Saryu River.

It is important to note here that as of now there are eight mosques in Ayodhya area

which the ASI has taken over since these had no one coming to read namaz. Hence what use

will another mosque be of?

Hence the national response to the judgment of Lucknow Bench of the Allahabad High

Court allotting one-third of the Ramjanmabhoomi to the Sunni Wakf Board to build a

mosque in the area near the Ramlala temple should be a resounding “No”. A temple cannot

be equated to a mosque in either its immutability or its divinity. The masjid in Islamic law is

just a building to facilitate reading of namaz, which anyway can be read anywhere.

Nor can we Hindus by the back door allow aggression and atrocity of demolishing

temples to be rewarded in any manner. Therefore, as with the Shah Bano case precedent,

Government should bring an amendment to the Acquisition of Certain Areas of Ayodhya Act

of 1993 to bar constructing any structure other than those connected with a temple for Sri

Rama.

That will be a befitting atonement of the so-called secular people of our nation who

have tacitly been tolerating for so long the demolition of Ram Temple on the orders of Babar

of Afghanistan.

Thus, if the Sri Rama Temple issue is settled legally and by such an overwhelming

consensus, then it would trigger a renaissance in the Indian cultural ethos, and lead the

Nation to gradually but inexorably define a Virat Hindustan Identity for all Indians.

The Nation would then become united as never before.

Ram Mandir: When?

-Kamleshwar Nath1

Eldorado India:

1. Bharat (i.e. India) drew attention Worldwide for its GOLDEN BIRD (Soney-

ki-Chiria) image born of Trade relations and propagation of Spirituality and Philosophy of

Love & Non-violence. The majestic Himalayas guarding the North with lands acknowledged

as Paradise on Earth (Kashmir), the fertile lands of Indo-Gangetic plains overflowing with

the Nectar of river Ganga, Yamuna and host of others, the great Oceans around presented a

panorama which attracted explorers like Greek Megesthenes and Chinese Hieun Tsang,

Vasco-de-Gama, Missionaries like St Francis Xa’vier and Austrian Jesuit Father Joseph

Tieffenthaler, Parsees and so on. They also provided attraction for Invasions, initially for

expansion of territory like Alexander the Great, but later for sheer loot & plunder, like

Mahmud Ghaznavi who destroyed thousands of Hindu Temples, including the Great

SOMNATH JYOTIRLING TEMPLE (1025 AD) in several raids, killing over 50,000 people

and carrying away tons of Indian wealth. The new found energy of Islam in 7th Century AD

with its concept of Kafir & Jihad prompted many a valiant Muslim warriors to spread out to

the World, and India had its share! After Mahmud, Timur set upon India in 1398. He was

prompted by a Verse in Quran searched out by him commanding: “O Prophet, make war

upon infidels and unbelievers and treat them with severity”; Timur proved true to the

invocation (Para 4011 of Hon’ble Justice Agarwal’s judgment). In December he destroyed

Delhi, seized tons of treasures and took them to Samarakand. His great-grand-son Babar

invaded India 5 times, and left the legacy known as Babri Masjid for the future generations to

reckon with – the controversy rages on! ‘Was Babri Masjid erected over a Hindu Temple at

the Birthplace of Lord Ram in Ayodhya after demolishing the Temple?’ Babar’s own

narratives in his Memoirs, called Babarnama, are both interesting and instructive. Its

Babar’s Ayodhya Expedition:

2. "Ayodhya is to Hindus what Mecca is to Muslims and Jerusalem to Jews" (vide, P. Carnegy's

'A Historical Sketch of Tehsil Fyzabad, Zila Fyzabad' of 1870). From the date Babar conquered

Kabul, Babar's desire for India (Hindustan) had been 'constant' (p. 478). In 925 AH

(4.1.1519), he led the army out to Bajur (N.W.F.P). '…….. As Bajauris were rebels and at

enmity with the people of Islam, ……………. they were put to a general massacre and their

wives and children made captive. According to a guess, more than 3000 men met their death'

(p. 370). 'Some heads of Sultans and of others were sent to Kabul with the news of success'

(p.371).

3. In 929 AH (Nov. 1522 to Nov. 1523), Babar made his 3rd expedition into India on an

appeal made by Daulat Khan Lodi and Alauddin-Alam Khan Lodi for help against Ibrahim

Lodi who ruled at Dilli (Delhi, the Capital). There has never been a dearth of Traitors in

India1. Ibrahim Lodi had called Daulat Khan; but …………… Daulat Khan preferred

allegiance to Babar, hence asked for Babar's help against Ibrahim Lodi' (p.439-440).

4. In 930 AH (10th Nov. 1523 to 29th October 1524), Lahore was occupied by Bihar

Khan Lodi who had led Ibrahim Khan's army in pursuit of Daulat Khan. A battle ensued

between Babar and Bihar Khan Lodi; the latter was defeated with great slaughter. Babar's

men followed his fugitive men into Lahore, plundered the town and burned some of the

bazaars. Four days later, Babar moved to Dibalpur (Southwards) which was stormed,

plundered and put to sword (p. 441).

5. In 932 AH (17th Nov. 1525) Babar started on his 5th expedition into India (p.445). On

Dec. 26 and 27, 1525, Babar dismounted on the bank of river Chinab (p.453), and proceeded

to visit Bahlolpur, which was KHALSA with a plan to bring Sialkot to it (p. 454). Babar was

on his march towards Dilli (Delhi) of Ibrahim Lodi who, then, had a standing army of 1 Lakh

and 1000 elephants. Babar bestowed Dibalpur on Baqi Shaghawal and sent him to help

Balkh (p.463). [This Baqi Shaghawal is Mir Baqi of Ayodhya episode.] On 25th Feb. 1526,

Babar appointed Humayun to act against Hamid Khan. On 5th March 1526, Humayun arrived

to wait on Babar bringing with him as many as 100 prisoners and 7 or 8 elephants. Ustad Ali

Quli and the matchlock man were ordered to shoot all the prisoners by way of example ……

It was an excellent Omen (p.464).

6. Pages 469 onwards record the battle of Panipat and defeat of Ibrahim Lodi. At page

472, A.S Beveridge has recorded Foot-note No. 1 mentioning, inter alia, that "Babar built a

(perhaps a commemorative) Mosque one mile to the N.E. of the Town". Page 478 mentions

Babar enter into Agra on 10th May 1526. At page 687, mention is made of Humayun's

retainer, Hindu Beg taking possession of Sambhal in 933 AH (1526-27 AD). Hindu Beg

transformed a Hindu Temple into a Mosque by Babar's order which was commemorated by

an inscription still existing on the Mosque.

7. Page 483 mentions “Rana Sanga who in these later days had grown great by his own

valour and sword…….. He became possessed of many of their dependencies such as

……….. Chandiri. Chandiri I stormed in 934 AH (1528 AD) and by God's pleasure took it

in a few hours ............ We made general massacre of the Pagans in it and, as will be

narrated, converted what for many years had been a mansion of hostility into a mansion of

Islam"

8. Accounts of battle with Rana Sanga are contained in pages 561 onwards. Page 572

records: “The absurd Hindus, knowing their position perilous, dispersed like carded wool

before the wind, and like moths scattered abroad. Mounds were made of their bodies of the

slain, pillars of their heads.” Page 574-75 records: ‘After this success, Ghazi (Victor in Holy

War) was written amongst the royal titles. Below the Titles entered on the Fatehnama, I

An Order was given to set up a pillar of pagan heads on the infant hill between which

and our Camp, the battle had been fought – P. 576.’1 On 26.12.1527, Babar sent troops

against Bayazid Farmuli (p.589) who had been given charge of Aud (Oudh/Ayodhya) by

Humayun (p.544). P.595 mentions: “On 27.2.1528, we passed Kannauj and dismounted on

the Western bank of Ganga (p.599). On 21.3.1528, I visited Laknau (Lucknow), crossed the

Gui water (Gomti river, p.601). On 28.3.1528, we dismounted 2 or 3 Kurohs from Aud

above the junction of Gagar (Gogra river) and Sird(a) (p.602). …….. We stayed a few days

on that ground (near Aud) in order to settle the affairs of Aud. …………. On 2.4.1528, I rode

out intending to hunt."

9. A.S.Beveridge writes Foot-note 2 at page 602 that no account of the hunting

expedition survives. The Babri Masjid was erected during that unaccounted period. It is

further stated at p. 603 that in all known texts of Babarnama, there is a break of the narrative

between April 2 and September 18, 1528, mentioned to fall from Jumada 12, 934 AH to

Moharram 3, 935 AH. Babar's occupations during those 5 1/2 months missing period are not

available in his chronicle of 935 AH (i.e. 15.9.1528 to 5.9.1529 – p.605) and although it

makes several references to occurrences of 'last year' and of Babar's acts, yet there is no

mention of his having planned, directed or erected Babri Masjid.

10. The available accounts, as indicated above, unmistakably show Babar to be a fanatic

Muslim out to destroy the ‘Kafir Hindus’, strike terror among the vanquished by putting up

mounds of ‘bodies slain’ and pillars of ‘heads severed from bodies’, destroy their places of

worship and replace them with Mosques – specific mention is made of transforming a Hindu

Temple in Sambhal (U.P.) into a Mosque in 1527 under the orders of Babar. On

recommencing his diary (the Babarnama) in September 1528, the same story stands repeated.

Page 606 mentions Babar ordering cutting out of a solid red building-stone hill in Dulpur

(Dhulpur) on 21st-23rd Sept. 1528. "I ordered a seat and a four-pillared platform to be cut

out in the solid rock on the same side and a Mosque built on the Western side". On 28th Sept

1528, he saw Urwah Valley, and wrote that he found '3 sides of Urwah are solid rock, and on

1 The spree of ‘beheading’ the captured victims continues even now: ISIS beheaded two foreign Journalists & put up video of the act on social media, a couple of years ago; Pakistani Jihadi militants beheaded two Soldiers of Indian Defence Forces guarding the LOC in Kashmir a few months ago, and carried away their heads!-Author.

these sides people have cut out Idol-statues, large and small, one large statue on the South

side being perhaps 20 gari (yards) high. These idols are shown quite naked without covering

for the privities ……. Urwah is not a bad place …. the idols are its defect. I, for my part,

ordered them destroyed' (p.612). [Those were Jain Temples.] With evidence of destruction of

Temples/Idols and replacing them with Mosques both before and after the Ayodhya

expedition, it is quite probable that during Babar’s Ayodhya expedition, a Hindu Temple at

Lord Ram’s Birthplace was destroyed and Babri Masjid erected over it as the Majority of

Judges have already held in the Ram Janmabhumi-Babri Masjid case.

The High Court:

11. This case has been decided by a Bench of 3 Judges. Every decision is the decision of

‘Allahabad High Court’ – a Court of Record. Their unanimous decision is Full Bench

decision which carries a very high status and is unquestionably binding on all smaller

Benches. If there is a dissent among Judges, the common view of the larger number of

Judges is Majority decision, and the view of the rest is Minority decision; the Majority view

supersedes the Minority decision. Single Judge’s view, where other Judges choose not to

express a view would, nevertheless, be the decision of the ‘Allahabad High Court’.

The Court’s Decision:

12. The 3-Judge Bench of Allahabad High Court’s Lucknow Bench, consisting of

Hon’ble Justices S.U.Khan, Sudhir Agarwal and D.V.Sharma delivered separate Judgments

on 30.9.2010 in this Nationally-important case popularly known as Ram Janma-bhumi-Babri

Masjid case. The Judgments have been published by Malhotra Law House, Allababad, in 3

Volumes in continuous pages. References to pages in this paper are from that publication.

Between Justices Khan and Agarwal, an exhaustive judgment was recorded by Agarwal J.

and Justice Khan mentioned at page 109 that except in respect of issues on which he had

recorded findings, he “fully agreed with the findings of Justice Agarwal, subject to anything

contrary stated/found in this judgment of mine”. It is impossible to place the full picture of

the case in a short paper like this; and, hence, an effort is made to set out the essence.

13. The disputed premises in the case consist of an area which was surrounded by

boundary walls and included the Masjid within, described as disputed structure. Counsel for

Muslim Parties stated on 22.4.2009 before the Bench that Muslim Parties did not dispute that

Lord Ram was born at Ayodhya, but they seriously disputed the assertion that Lord Ram was

born at premises in dispute (p.101). Earlier, in para 19 of Written Statement dated

26/29.8.1989, in reply to Plaint of Ramlala’s Suit (No. 5 of 1989), the Muslim Parties (Sunni

Central Board of Wakf) had pleaded that it was ‘very doubtful’ that the personality of Shri

Ram Chandra ji is a historical personality and, further, even the location of present Ayodhya

did not tally with the location of Ayodhya as given in Balmiki Ramayan which also creates ‘a

doubt’ of there being any place of birth of Shri Ram Chandra ji in the present Ayodhya. It

took 10 years for Muslim Parties to admit that Shri Ram Chandra ji is a genuine historical

personality born in Ayodhya as it stands and that too as stated in Balmiki Ramayan. It is

interesting that this ultimate admission – which came after the entire evidence, including

report of Archaeological Survey of India had been concluded – is mentioned to be ‘for the

purposes of this case!’ As if, in any other context, they would not abide by the admission.

That is the standard of credibility of Muslim Parties. In this context one is reminded of the

proposition of ‘celebrated Muslim historian and scholar Maulana Syed Sababuddin Abdur

Rehman in the preface to his treatise “Babri Masjid” that ‘On behalf of Muslims I also have a

right to say that if it is proved that Babri Masjid has been built after demolishing Ram Janam

Bhumi Mandir on its place, then such a mosque if built on such an usurped land deserves to

be destroyed. No theologian or Aalim can give Fatwa to hold Namaz in it’ (p.2005 of

Hon’ble Justice Agarwal’s Judgment). Perhaps Government of India’s White Paper on

negotiations between representatives of Hindus and Muslims too mentions likewise so that if

it is held by Court of Law that there did exist a Hindu Temple over which the Babri Masjid

was erected after demolishing the Temple, Muslims would voluntarily give up their claim to

disputed property. Not so now after Court Judgment. The Bench has given its decision in

favour of Hindus on both points; but there is no credibility in promises. Wrong doers rarely

have credibility.

14. Khan J held that ‘a very large area’ was considered to be the birthplace of Lord Ram

by general Hindus in the sense that somewhere in that large area Lord Ram was born; but

after construction of Masjid, Hindus started treating/believing the site of the Masjid as the

Page 27: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

27

exact place of Ram’s birthplace (p.103). Even so, he adopted the view of Agarwal J. that the

Central Dome of the Masjid was the birthplace of Lord Ram. He held that a Hindu Idol is

Deity, but it was not necessary to decide whether the land itself (the birthplace) can be Deity

under Hindu Law (p.108). It was further held that the Masjid was ‘constructed by or under

orders of Babar’ but the premises on which it was constructed did not belong to Babar or to

the person who constructed it; that no temple was demolished for constructing the Masjid but

it was constructed over the ruins of a Temple lying since a very long time, utilising some of

the material of that Temple for the construction of the Masjid. Appreciating that, under

Muslim Law, no one could construct a mosque on another’s property without the other’s

permission, he held that since it was not proved that the land belonged to anyone else, hence

due to its long user as a Masjid it would be presumed to be a valid Mosque by User. It is

further held that much before 1855, Ram Chabutra and Sita Rasoi had come into existence

within the premises of the Masjid and Hindus worshipped thereat, while Muslims too used to

offer Namaz inside the Masjid which was a ‘very very unique and absolutely unprecedented

situation’. For this reason, Khan J held that both Hindus and Muslims were in joint

possession of the entire premises in dispute, although using and occupying different portions

of the premises without any sort of Partition. It was also held that since both Parties have

failed to prove commencement of their title hence, by virtue of Section 110 of Indian

Evidence Act, both Parties are joint title-holders of the disputed premises. However, his

Lordship further held that some decades before 1949, Hindus started believing/treating the

site of the Central Dome of the Masjid was the birthplace to be the exact place where Lord

Ram was born, and finally the Idol of Lord Ram was placed under that Dome in the early

hours of 23.11.1949. [The Mosque was demolished on 6.12.1992, and a Make-shift Ram

Temple under a Canvass Canopy was constructed which exists even now and worship of the

Deity has been going on.] In the ultimate result, the Hon’ble Judge declared both Parties to

be joint owners of the disputed promises and ordered it to be partitioned in the ratio of 1/3rd

each to Hindus, Muslims and Nirmohi Akhara, ensuring that the Central Dome site of the

Mosque shall be allotted to Hindus (p.115-116).

15. Hon’ble Agarwal J has held that Parties have failed to prove that the Disputed

Structure was erected either by Babar or by Mir Baqi or in 1528, hence it was not necessary

to decide whether it was a Mosque or not, but by way of ‘informed guess’ it would have been

Page 28: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

28

constructed between 1659 and 1707 during the regime of Aurangzeb (p.1100-01). This

conflicts with the view of Khan J. that the Masjid was ‘constructed by or under orders of

Babar’ but the premises on which it was constructed did not belong to Babar or to the person

who constructed it. Agarwal J further held that a Hindu Temple was demolished and the

Mosque was raised over it; this conflicts with the view of Khan J. that that no temple was

demolished for constructing the Masjid but it was constructed over the ruins of a Temple

lying since a very long time, utilising some of the material of that Temple for the

construction of the Masjid. Agarwal J. added that the builder of the structure knew the

strength, capacity and size of the walls of the Temple, hence used its walls, stones, pillars,

bricks etc. in erecting the Mosque and the artefacts recovered during excavation were mostly

such as pertain to Hindu religious places (p. 2507). His Lordship also held that despite

construction of the disputed structure in the shape of Mosque, it was used and continued to be

visited by Hindus for offering worship, Puja and Darshan as they treated it to be the

birthplace of Lord Ram of which there is no alternative and that place is permanent, not

liable to be disturbed in any manner (p.2508). It was further held that the birth place of Lord

Ram was Swyambhu Deity whose worship had continued for past several centuries, that

Hindus in general had been entering the premises within the inner courtyard as a matter of

right for the past several centuries, i.e., since time immemorial, and cannot be denied that

right after such a long time (p.2521). However, this indefeasible right of Hindus was

confined to the site of the Central Dome of the Mosque on the basis that only that area is

specifically proved by Hindus to be the exact place of birth of Lord Ram, hence belongs

exclusively to Deity known as Ram Janmasthan (p.2828); in respect of the rest of the land

within the inner courtyard (i.e., the site of the Mosque-structure and the abutting Chabutra

within the erstwhile railing) it was held that both Hindus and Muslims used to offer

worship/prayers for ‘decades and centuries’ (p.2868), hence it belonged jointly to both

Communities. The Hon’ble Judge, therefore, directed the entire area to be partitioned in such

a way that Hindus, Muslims and Nirmohi Akhara each got 1/3rd share with the provision that

Ram Janmasthan shall fall within the share of Bhagwan Shri Ramlala, while Ram Chabutra,

Sita Rasoi and Bhandar shall fall to the share of Nirmohi Akhara (p.2871).

16. On the question of validity of Babri Masjid, Agarwal J. held that the disputed

structure was a mosque known as Babri Masjid (p.1932), but the question whether it was

Page 29: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

29

dedicated to Almighty was ‘wholly irrelevant’ hence not answered. In the matter of

dedication of the Mosque by long user, mentioned by Khan J., Agarwal J. held (P.1910) that

the question of Wakf by long User would not be relevant where a particular person (Babar or

Mir Baqi) is said to have made the dedication. However, both Hindus and Muslims were held

to have been offering worship/prayers inside the Masjid for more than 80 years before OOS 1

was filed in 1950.

17. Hon’ble Sharma J. held that the Mosque was erected on the site of a massive Hindu

religious structure after demolishing it (p.2970), that in view of commands contained in

Quran, followed by traditions, Babar, who had not acquired title to the Temple, was not in a

position to erect the Mosque against the tenets of Islam, hence there was no valid dedication

(Wakf) of the Mosque to Almighty (p.2975). It was held that both Ram Janmasthan (also

known as Ram Janmabhumi) and Bhagwan Shree Ramlala are Deities and Juristic Persons

(p. 3522 and 3526). His Lordship held the whole of the disputed area to be ‘the site of

Janmabhumi of Ram Chandra ji’, that ‘Hindus have been worshipping the place in dispute as

Janmasthan i.e., birthplace and visiting it as a sacred place of pilgrimage as of right since

times immemorial’ (p. 3454). He dismissed the suit of Muslims (p. 3474) and wholly decreed

the suit of Hindus and permanently restrained Muslims from interfering with Hindus’

constructing a Temple at Ram Janmabhumi Ayodhya (p. 3586).

The Call for Justice:

18. ‘Justice delayed is justice denied’; and the Supreme Court has repeatedly held that

speedy justice is a Fundamental Right of every citizen. The earliest legal battle for Lord

Ram’s Birthplace brought out the Hindu assertion that Babar had committed great injustice to

Hindus, was a bigot and tyrant and Babri Masjid came into being on account of that conduct.

Hon’ble Mr Justice S.U.Khan, who led the 3-Judge High Court Bench, has mentioned at

pages 34/35 of his judgment that the object of Mahant Raghubar Das’ Regular Suit of 1885,

as recorded by the District Judge in Appeal, was that “the British Government, as no

respecter of persons, was asked through the Courts to remedy an injustice committed by a

Mohammedan Emperor”, and that the Judicial Commissioner of Oudh, Mr Justice W. Young,

in the Second Appeal Judgment mentioned that “the supposed Holy Spot in Ayodhya, said to

be the birthplace of Shri Ram Chandra is situated within the precincts of the grounds

Page 30: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

30

surrounded by a Mosque erected some 350 years ago owing to the bigotry and tyranny of

Emperor Babar who purposely chose this Holy Spot, according to Hindu legend, as the site

of his mosque”.

19. There was no question of justice to Hindus in the matter of Ram Temple during

Muslim rule; with great difficulty and sacrifices Ram Chabutra was installed within the

South-eastern corner and Sita Rasoi etc in the Northern portion of disputed premises and

Worship of the Idols, Sita Rasoi etc., was continued. The 1885 suit of Mahant Raghubar Das

did not bring justice to Hindus during British rule; the Hindus could not erect Ram Temple

on Ram Chabutra. After India’s Independence (in 1947), devotees of Ram could rise to some

prominence. In December 1949 the Idols of Bhagwan Shree Ram were shifted from Ram

Chabutra to Central Dome of the Masjid, and worship continued. The first suit was filed on

15.1.1950 (by Gopal Singh Visharad) to prevent the Government and Muslims from

interfering with worship of the Idols within the Masjid. A temporary injunction by the Civil

Court prevented the Government and Muslims accordingly. Mahant Paramhans Ram

Chandra Das of Digambar Akhara (a revered Order of Sadhus) of Ayodhya and a staunch

devotee of Lord Ram filed the second suit on same lines shortly after the first. About 9 years

later Nirmohi Akhara (another revered Order of Sadhus) filed the third suit on 17.12.1959.

Twelve years after December 1949 episode, Sunni Central Board of Wakf, in capacity

representative of Muslims, filed suit on 18.12.1961 against all Parties of earlier 3 suits, also

in capacity representative of the Hindus. The four suits continued their course in different

grades of Courts; but justice was nowhere in sight.

20. Then came the Muslim onslaught tirade against Kashmiri Pandits in 1989-90. Public

posters were put up throughout Kashmir by Muslim militants decrying Hindus as Kafirs and

warning Hindus to quit Kashmir or else face annihilation in terms of person and property.

Many Pandits were shot dead in cold blood. About 300000 Hindu Pandits were displaced

from their own homelands and properties in Kashmir to settle as refugees in safer places in

the rest of India. Post-1947 Independence, in Islamic Republic of Pakistan, ever keen to grab

Kashmir, the population of Hindus and their Temples dwindled to single digit figure by 2014.

The Hindu Deities inside the Babri Masjid, namely the Idol of Bhagwan Shree Ramlala and

Shree Ram Janmmasthan (also known as Ram Janmabhumi) with Bhagwan Shree Ramlala

Presiding (Virajman) filed the 5th Suit in 1989. All the 5 suits went on and the matters

Page 31: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

shuttled between Faizabad District Judiciary and High Court; but final outcome was not in

sight.

21. Some Hindu zealots felt: ‘Enough is enough’, and in a flash of action destroyed Babri

Masjid within few hours on 6.12.1992; a Make-shift Ram Temple with a Canvass Canopy

over the Idol of Bhagwan Shree Ramlala was installed. The Government of India acted as

swiftly and acquired the entire property (with lots of surrounding properties) by an Ordinance

on 7th January 1993 followed by ‘Acquisition of Certain Areas of Ayodhya Act 1993’ and

took possession of the whole area, and placed it under management of an ‘Authorised

Person’, to wit, the Commissioner of Faizabad Division as Statutory Receiver. The

Acquisition was challenged in Supreme Court which delivered the judgment on 24.10.1994,

reported as Dr. Ismail Faruqui & others Vs Union of India in (1994) 6 SCC 360; the Act was

upheld except in respect of the Disputed Area while all the suits were directed to proceed for

final disposal. Exasperated by delays, Paramhans Ram Chandra Das withdrew his suit (the

2nd Suit of 1950); the remaining 4 suits continued.

22. Almost 10 years later, the Hon’ble High Court considered if archaeological

excavation could help to determine the main issue, viz., “Whether there was Hindu Temple,

or any Hindu religious structure existed, or the alleged Babri Masjid was constructed after

demolishing temple at the site in dispute.” (p. 219 of Agarwal J. judgment). After hearing the

submissions of Parties, the Court Ordered on 23.10.2002 to have a non-intrusive

investigation and report through Ground Penetrating Radar procedure (p.220), and by Order

of 26.11.2002, appointed M/s Tojo Vikas International (Pvt) Ltd to make the survey and

report. The survey report was submitted to Hon’ble Court on 17.2.2003. The survey revealed

‘…….a variety of anomalies ranging from 0.5 to 5.5 meters in depth that could be associated

with ancient and contemporaneous structures such as pillars, foundations, walls, slab-

floorings extending over a large portion of the site’. However, Tojo-Vikas opined that ‘the

exact nature of those anomalies has to be confirmed by systematic ground-truthing, such as

provided by the archaeological trenching’. After hearing Parties, the Court by Order dated

5.3.2003 decided to have the site excavated by Archaeological Survey of India and issued

detailed directions for the purpose (p.225). ASI submitted its report in two Volumes to the

Court on 25.8.2003.

Site Excavation by ASI:

23. During the course of excavation, the Muslim Parties continued to file

objections after objections, and the Court decided them from time to time, giving appropriate

directions to ASI as found necessary. Ultimately the Hon’ble Court held (p.244) that only the

final report (not the intermediate reports) shall be taken as evidence on record and the report

shall be ‘subject to objections and evidence which may be led by Parties’.

24. The last para of Summary of Results submitted by the ASI, inter alia, mentions

discovery of a “massive structure just below the Disputed Structure with continuity of

structural phases from 10th Century up to construction of disputed structure along with the

yield of stone and decorated bricks as well as mutilated sculpture of Divine Couple, and

carved architectural members including foliage patterns, amalak, kapotpali doorjamb with

semi-circular pilaster, broken octagonal shaft of black schist pillar, lotus motif, Circular

Shrine having pranala (waterchute) in the north, fifty pillar bases in association with the

huge structure are indicative of remains which are distinctive features found associated with

the temples of North India”.

25. Muslim Parties filed a number of objections. Hon’ble Khan J., relying upon the views

recorded by Hon’ble Agarwal J, preferred ‘not to delve deep into the ASI Report’ (p.114).

Hon’ble Agarwal J. made a very thorough and detailed analysis of excavated material. At

page 2177, he recorded:

“Since some general but serious allegations have been levelled against

ASI, though not substantiated, we shall examine all these aspects

minutely…………so that there may not remain a grievance that one or the

other aspect, howsoever minor it is, has escaped consideration the Court”.

Indeed detailed analysis is made from p.2177 (para 3774) to p. 2445 (para 3989) of the

judgment. The salient features of the findings are as follows:

(i) ASI is a Department of Government of India, and in law can be presumed to

be an expert body of the Government on the subject of archaeology (p. 2181).

(ii) There is no force in objections with respect to stratification/periodisation

made by ASI (P.2352).

Page 33: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

(iii) ASI found 50 Pillar Bases (PB) of which 12 were completely exposed, 35

partially and 3 were traced in section. 20 of these PB confirm GPR survey. There were 17

rows of PB from North to South, each row having 5 PB. These 17 rows were constructed

along with North-South brick-wall No. 16 (para 3902; No. 16 is the western wall of Temple

and has been used as foundation wall for Mosque). Only in respect of 3 PBs Muslims

complained of their having been ‘planted’; and even those had been detected by GPR Survey

(paras 2377 to 3900). Moreover, it is impossible to ‘plant’ PB within section-baulk of 2

walls. All the 50 PBs were attached to Floor No. 2 datable to 1200 AD and most of them

were resting over Floor No. 4 which was the earliest floor of the Temple. Carbon dating

confirmed the above period (para 3904). Finally, all objections to PBs were rejected

(p.2390).

(iv) Pages 2401 onwards deal with Walls of Mosque as well as Temple. 28 walls

were traced; Walls 1 to 15 belonged to Masjid, Wall 16 to 28 belonged to the Temple and

were underneath the Mosque structure. Wall 5 of Mosque was directly resting over 50

Metres long Temple Wall 16 running North-South, which further projected towards North

and South beyond the excavated area, and was attached to Floor No. 2 as well as to 50 PBs

to its East; they all belonged to 12th Century. P. 2403 mentions that below Wall No. 16,

stood Wall No. 17 of the Temple of the same length and served as foundation for Wall No.

16.

(v) In respect of ‘Circular Shrine’ found on excavation (p.2404), Muslim Parties

contended that it could be a ‘Buddhist shrine’ or ‘tomb of erstwhile Islamic religious

structure’ (para 3931). The Court rejected the contention (p.2410) and held it to be Lord

Shiva Shrine (paras 3937 to 3929).

(vi) In respect of Animal Bones found during excavation, Muslim Parties strongly

urged that they could not be found in a Hindu Temple or religious place. Hon’ble Agarwal J.

dealt with them in detail at p. 2421 to 2430. In para 3968, he mentioned that the collection of

animal bones was recovered from the ‘fills of different periods’. He held that these fills were

brought from neighbouring areas to level the ground from time to time, hence their

examination would only throw light about the area of their origin and have no bearing on the

nature of layers of the excavated site. He referred to some witnesses of Muslim Parties that in

some Hindu Temples, animals are sacrificed and bones may be found at temple sites too, and

Page 34: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

are not associated with any particular community. He also observed that bones in such

abundance could not be found even in Mosques or Islamic religious places, hence they are of

no consequence (paras 3969/3970).

26. After dealing with several other items of recovery on excavation, Hon’ble

Agarwal J. upheld ASI Report and rejected all objections (p. 2445 (para 3989). Indeed one

would wonder whether Muslim Parties could lawfully lay claim of having some Muslim

religious structure like ‘tomb’ or ‘kanati Masjid’ underneath the Babri Masjid despite

admissions to the contrary made by their lawyer Sri Mohd Ayub in representative capacity

of all Muslims on 20.1.1964 in Suit No. 4 (p.3672) that Babar had constructed Babri Masjid

in 1528 from ‘scratch’ (az sare-nao) and, at that site, earlier there never existed any Hindu

Temple or religious place (Devasthan) of any sort, or any construction. To the question as to

how Mohd. Ayub could know the contents underneath the surface, the answer is in counter-

question: How did the Hindus know that there was a Temple!

27. During demolition of Babri Masjid on 6.12.1992, a large Stone-slab (115Cm x

55Cm - p.2117) containing 20-line engraved Inscription was recovered from the Western

Wall of the Masjid. It is set out at p. 2119 to 2122 of Hon’ble Agarwal’s judgment and

p.3238 to 3241 of Hon’ble Sharma’s Judgment. It exhaustively sets out the history behind its

contents. The engraved inscription has been examined by epigraphists and Verse 19 read

with Verse 21 mention that ‘this beautiful Temple of god Vishnu-Hari’ was constructed by

Meghasuta, who had earned the lordship of Saket-Mandal (Ayodhya is also known as Saket)

through Govindchand of Gahadwal dynasty which had Ayodhya within its territory (p.2128);

the epigraphist proved it to concern 12th Century AD (p.2121 and p. 3177). Hon’ble Agarwal

J. held that the genuineness and authenticity of the stone inscription cannot be doubted (p.

2125). ASI report strengthens the periodicity of that Temple. Since admittedly a lot of

material of the Temple was used in constructing Babri Masjid, this large stone slab must have

been drawn from that Temple and used in the Masjid.

28. The decision of the Hon’ble High Court on the basic questions, thus, may be stated as

follows:

(a) Both Ram Janmasthan (also called Ram Janmabhumi) and Bhagwan Shree Ramlala

presiding over it (Virajman), are Hindu Deities/Juristic Persons worshipped by Hindus since

time immemorial. [Hon’ble Khan J. left this issue unanswered (p.108)].

(b) A Hindu Temple existed at Ram Janmasthan which was demolished and Babri

Masjid was erected at the site of the Temple. [Hon’ble Khan J. held the site to have been in

ruins (p. 103-104)].

(c) The exact ‘place of birth’ of Lord Ram was the site of Central Dome of the erstwhile

Masjid, and would alone be known as Ram Janmasthan or Ram Janmabhumi [This view is

open to question as shall appear later.]

(d) The Masjid was illegal, erected contrary to Islamic tenets; it could not even be a

Mosque by User [See below for further comments].

(e) Hindus and Muslims had been in joint possession of Disputes Area, hence the whole

site was liable to be partitioned in such a way that Hindus (Bhagwan Shree Ramlala/Ram

Janmabhumi), Muslims (Sunni Central Board of Wakf) and Nirmohi Akhara would get 1/3rd

share each with the condition that, in the Final Decree for Partition, the Central Dome area of

the erstwhile Masjid shall be included in the share allotted to Bhagwan Shri Ramlala, Ram

Chabutra, Sita Rasoi & Bhandar shall be allotted to the share of Nirmohi Akhara, and the

share of Sunni Central Board of Wakf shall be carved out of the remaining part of Disputed

Area with appropriate adjustment from the other land acquired by the Central Government

under the Act of 1993. [This direction, too, is open to question as shall appear later].

29. Re Ruins: Hon’ble Khan J held that the disputed area was in ruins when the Masjid

was erected. There is no documentary evidence to sustain this view. The earliest relevant

document was the travel account by William Finch of 1608-1611 and earliest Gazetteer was

by Walter Hamilton of 1828 mentioned at p. 93. Obviously these records were prepared,

respectively, 80 and 300 years after the Masjid was erected; hence they could not indicate the

situation as of 1528. Since Babar’s own accounts reveal a spree of demolitions of Temples &

erection of Masjids by his hordes during invading expeditions, the probability is that all

Hindu religious structures at and around the disputed site would have been demolished

hence, later, travellers found ruins around. The Vishnu-Hari Temple by Meghasut of the 12th

Century could well have been there as shown above and demolished to erect Babri Masjid.

30. Re Central Dome of Masjid as Birthplace of Lord Ram: The approach of Hon’ble

Agarwal J. to this issue, indicated in para 4372 at p.2784-2785, deserves careful attention. He

observed that although religious texts mention that Lord Ram was born in Ayodhya and that

Ayodhya “is his ‘place of birth’, yet they do not identify any particular place in Ayodhya

Page 36: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

36

which can be said to be his ‘place of birth’…………….It is true that a search of a ‘place of

birth’ after long time even today may not be very easy if one tried to find out in this regard

just 3 or 4 generations back. Therefore, to make such kind of inquiry in a matter of such an

antiquity is almost impossible. But when a dispute in such a manner is raised then we go by

the well-accepted principle in law of evidence particularly as application (?-‘applicable’) in

civil cases i.e., preponderance of evidence”.

31. Three concepts arise in this observation: (i) His Lordship was looking for ‘place of

birth’ instead of ‘birthplace’. The ‘place of birth’ of a person may be in a Hospital, but his

‘birthplace’ would be the house of his ordinary residence at the time of birth – that is what a

common man would understand in ordinary parlance, and laws are made for common men.

(ii) Accordingly Court started looking for a smaller place where Ram could have been born

actually though the exercise was described by the Court itself to be impossible. Perhaps

sensing the mood of the Court [apparent from Court-queries to Hindu Parties Advocates as

stated at p.101 by Hon’ble Khan J.] the witnesses, in cross-examination, started mentioning,

the Central Dome of the Masjid as ‘place of birth’ which Lord Shree Ramlala was already

presiding over. They started calling it as Garbha-griha. That was a situation of ‘Devil &

Deep Sea!’ Nevertheless all those witnesses (perhaps – at least most of them definitely)

asserted that they held the entire disputed area to be the Birthplace of Lord Ram. (iii) The

rule of Probabilities, enacted in Definition of expression ‘Proved’ in Section 3 of Indian

Evidence Act, established by, what the Court called, ‘Preponderance of Evidence’ made out

the entire Disputed Area as the Birthplace because the mass of evidence was in favour of it.

Temple, in Hindu Law, is the Home of the Deity. Supported by Devotees/Pilgrims making

Parikrama during darshan-puja of the Deity around the whole of the Disputed Structure

since time immemorial as recorded by Father Joseph Tieffenthaler in his travel accounts of

1766-71, the preponderance/probability in favour of the entire disputed area was reasonably

established. The circumbulation path (Parikrama) was found existing at the spot in 1885-suit

by Court Amin, and in 1950-suit (of Gopal Singh Visharad) by the Advocate-Commissioner

appointed by the Court. The Muslim Parties have admitted the existence of the ‘path’, but

state it to be the ‘apron’ of the Mosque.

32. Re Mosque by User: Only Hon’ble Khan J held Babri Masjid to be valid by User.

Admittedly the Mosque stood at a place which did not belong to its builder, be he Babar or

Page 37: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

37

Mir Baqi. Hon’ble Khan J took the view that the ownership of the site was not proved to vest

in anyone, hence long user promoted an illegal structure to the status of valid Mosque. Since

the Disputed Area is proved to be the site of Hindu Temple, and the site itself (Ram

Janmabhumi/Janmasthan) was a Hindu Deity capable of owning property, at the time of

erection of the Masjid, its ownership vested in the Deity – it was not res nullius. Secondly,

since both Hon’ble J Khan and Agarwal have held the site of Central Dome to be the Deity,

at least that portion could never be transformed into a Mosque, and with that the whole of the

Mosque must go; there cannot be a partial mosque within a whole Temple. Thirdly, the

doctrine of ‘non-est’ shall apply to such a Mosque; it is ‘still-born’, it cannot be infused with

life in any manner.

33. Re Joint Ownership of Mosque/Temple: The Court has held that none of the Parties

acquired title by Adverse Possession. That is the only legal method of acquiring rights in

another’s property; mere user cannot materialise into title. The finding is of Hindus and

Muslims ‘offering of prayers’. Obviously there could not be ‘joint prayers’; there could only

be ‘exclusive prayers offered separately’. That sort of worship/namaz could only be

‘permissive’; no title could accrue thereby. The concept of partition, therefore, needs

rethinking.

Ram Temple when?

34. The legal battle for Ram Temple began in 1885 with Mahant Raghubar Das

Suit; Hindus failed. Extra-constitutional battles, of course, had been going on since the very

erection of Babri Masjid, and both Hindu and Muslim lives were lost over centuries.

However, Hindus could make a foothold inside a portion of Masjid’s premises. The current

legal battle commenced in 1950 and it took 60 years for our Courts to decide the cases in

September 2010. [Taken from 1885 litigation, the duration of judicial process would be 125

years!] Five years have passed since the matter is pending in Supreme Court. In the

meantime, the Deities stay under a canvass canopy, liable to suffer ravages of changing

seasons, and devotees/pilgrims Hindus bear the torture of long tortuous queues in single file

for hours together to have Darshan of Lord Ram and Janmabhumi; they themselves cannot

perform Puja which has only to be done by one Pujari only. Small conveniences or

improvements are opposed by Muslim Parties in the name of Status quo. [Even self-grown or

Page 38: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

planted Basil (Tulsi) cannot be permitted to grow]. Hindus have already won substantially,

and although Muslims should have given up their claim in the circumstances pointed out in

this paper, the final judicial word has yet to come.

35. It is said that the main hurdle in speedy disposal of Appeals (a Constitutional

Fundamental Right) in Hon’ble Supreme Court is incomplete translation of non-English

record into English language as required by Constitution of India. It is felt that as soon as

translation of non-Hindi/Urdu records is over (whose volume is not much), the Hon’ble

Supreme Court can mould the Rules of Procedure in such a way that original records in

Hindi/Urdu (which is huge) may be directly accessed by all concerned during hearing

because we have a number of Hon’ble Judges who are at ease with both of those languages.

In that case, it may be possible to commence the hearing in first-half and deliver judgment in

second-half of the year 2016. Thus, construction of Ram Temple may be achieved by the

year 2018. Amen.

Ram Janmbhoomi: Title Dispute and the Way Forward

-Vikramjit Banerjee 1and Shubhendu Anand2

The Ram Janmbhoomi dispute, dealing with the birthplace of Lord Ram whom

Mohammad Iqbal referred to as ‘Imam-e-Hind’ and who is the civilizational symbol of India

stretching from Vietnam to the Caribbean, is one of the most important legal disputes in the

history of India. It is a legacy of our past and without the resolution of the Ram Janmbhoomi

there can be no effective resolution of historical wrongs.

The present paper highlights the background of the litigation arising out of the Ram

Janmbhoomi dispute and suggests the way forward as to how to solve the same.

Sequence of Events

In pursuance to two suits filed by Hindus in 1950, the Faizabad Trial Court passed

interim orders whereby the idols remained at the place where they were installed in

December 1949 and their Puja by the Hindus continued. This interim order was confirmed by

the High Court in April 1955. Thereafter, in 1959, a suit was filed by the Nirmohi Akhara

claiming title to the disputed structure. In 1961, another suit was filed claiming title to the

disputed structure by the Sunni Central Wakf Board. In 1989, Deoki Nandan Agarwal, as the

next friend of the Deity filed a title suit in respect of the disputed structure in the Faizabad

District Court making both Sri Ramlala Virajman and the site of Janm-Bhoomi as petitioners

in their capacity as “Deities” and praying for the relief to declare the entire premises as

Ramlala’s property. In 1989, the suits were transferred to the Allahabad High Court and were

ordered to be heard together. On 14-8-1989, the High Court ordered the maintenance of

status quo in respect of the disputed structure. Para 1.2 of the aforementioned White Paper

states that: "....interim orders in these civil suits restrained the parties from removing the

idols or interfering with their worship. In effect, therefore, from December 1949 till

December 6, 1992 the structure had not been used as a mosque."1

Issues during Negotiations

In an order to find an amicable solution to the dispute, negotiations between the

Vishwa Hindu Parishad and the All India Babri Masjid Action Committee were held. In the

negotiations, one issue which came to the fore was whether a Hindu temple had existed on

the site occupied by the disputed structure and whether it was demolished on Babar's orders

for the construction of the Masjid. It was stated on behalf of the Muslim organisations that

there was no evidence in favour of either of these two assertions. It was also stated by certain

Muslim leaders that if these assertions were proved, the Muslims would voluntarily handover

the disputed shrine to the Hindus.2 This formed the backbone of negotiations between the

VHP and AIBMAC.

Affidavit of the Central Government

The Special Presidential Reference was made to the Supreme Court of India on the

question whether there was a Hindu temple existing on the site where the disputed structure

stood. The Government agreed to abide by the opinion of the Hon’ble Supreme Court with

respect to the disputed property and determine the rights of the parties in the light of the

Court’s opinion.

On 14th September, 1994, the then Solicitor General of India, Shri Dipankar P. Gupta

made the following statement in a written affidavit on being asked by the Honourable Court

to further clarify the stand of the Central Government about the purpose of the Special

Reference:

“If efforts at a negotiated settlement as aforesaid do not succeed, Government is committed

to enforce a solution in the light of the Supreme Court's opinion and consistent with it,

Government's action in this regard will be even-handed in respect of both the communities. If

Page 41: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

41

the question referred is answered in the affirmative, namely, that a Hindu temple/structure

did exist prior to the construction of the demolished structure, Government action will be in

support of the wishes of the Hindu community. If, on the other hand, the question is answered

in the negative, namely, that no such Hindu temple/structure existed at the relevant time, then

Government action will be in support of the wishes of the Muslim community.”1

Distinction between Disputed Property and Adjacent Property

In Dr Ismail Faruqui vs Union of India 2, while upholding the validity of acquisition

of lands by the Central government, the Supreme Court made the following observation:

“….the interest claimed by the Muslims is only over the disputed site where the mosque

stood before its demolition. The objection of the Hindus to this claim has to be adjudicated.

The remaining entire property acquired under the Act is such over which no title is claimed

by the Muslims. A large part thereof comprises of properties of Hindus of which the title is

not even in dispute.”

The Supreme Court made a clear distinction between two categories of lands thus:

(a) As described in the white paper, the small area of land over which Ram

Janmbhomi-Babri Masjid stood, including the inner courtyard and outer courtyard of the

structure before it was demolished on December 6, 1992 is the disputed property,

(b) Undisputed property consists of large extent of about 67 acres of land in the

locality, belonging to various persons, including 43 acres belonging to Rama Janmabhoomi

Nyas.

As regards the disputed land, the Supreme Court held that the disputed land shall be

with the Central government as a receiver and it shall be handed over to the party succeeding

in the suits pending before the Allahabad High Court.

The Present Status

On 30th September 2010, the Lucknow Bench of the Allahabad High Court ruled that

the disputed site, with an area of 2,400 square feet (220 m2), should be divided into three

parts. The ruling stated that the third of the site on which the idol of Rama was placed would

be granted to the deity Ram Lalla Virajmaan. Another third of the site would be granted to

the Sunni Wakf Board, and the remaining third to Nirmohi Akhada.

Pursuant to this SLP and cross SLP were filed by both the partied aggrieved by the

judgment of the High Court.

In its order dated, 9th May, 2011, the Supreme Court bench comprising of Justice Aftab

Alam and Justice R.M. Lodha, in Civil Appeal No.- 10866-10867 of 2010, stated that during

the pendency of the appeals the operation of the judgment and decree passed by the

Allahabad High Court shall remain stayed. The court passed the following orders: During the

pendency of the appeals, the parties shall maintain status quo in regard to suit land, as

directed by an earlier judgment and order passed by this Court in 'Dr. M. Ismail Faruqui &

Ors. v. Union of India & Ors.' (1994) 6 SCC 360 vide paras 86, 87.

On 25th February, 2013, the Supreme Court bench comprising of Justice Aftab Alam

and Justice Ranjana Prakash Desai, on applications filed by the Authorized

Person/Commissioner, Faizabad Division, Faizabad, Uttar Pradesh, stating that the

tarpaulin, polythene sheet and the ropes, fastening the cover over the makeshift structure

have become old and weak and need to be replaced at the earliest, directed that the old and

worn out tarpaulin, polythene sheet and ropes over the makeshift structure shall be replaced

by new ones of the same size and quality and exactly in the same manner as they were

previously placed so that the status quo doesn’t change. It was also ordered that the process

of replacement of the old cover by the new one will be undertaken and completed under the

supervision of the two observers who have been visiting the site.

Applications were filed by the Registrar General, Allahabad High Court, who sought to

impleadment in the pending appeals in order to seek clarification as to whether the observers

appointed by the High Court during the pendency of the trial would still be required to

Page 43: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

43

visit the disputed site and the disputed land every fortnight on Sunday and would

continue to submit the reports as before. To this, the Court stated, “As regards the two

observers who have been visiting the disputed site since their appointment by the orders of

the High Court, dated March 26, 2003, and April 26, 2010, we direct that the two observers,

namely, Mr. S.K. Singh and Mr. T.M. Khan, shall continue to visit the site and perform the

duties assigned to them by the High Court. They would additionally see that the direction of

this Court as contained in the order dated May 9, 2011 to maintain status quo at the site is

duly observed by everyone. They would continue to keep a vigil over the articles brought

out in course of excavation of the site and shall also continue to submit their fortnightly

reports to this Court.”

Recently, in August, 2015, Dr. Subramanian Swamy filed a petition before the

Supreme Court of India to issue a directive to the Uttar Pradesh State government to provide

basic minimum facilities like drinking water or toilets to visitors and to have a better darshan

and perform puja. Dr. Swamy pleaded that the status quo order passed by the SC in 1996 was

limited to prohibit building of any structure at the disputed site, but there was no bar in

constructions to facilitate amenities for pilgrims visiting the place.

The way forward

A. In accordance with the affidavit filed by the Solicitor General of India in

Ismail Faruqui case, the Government may hand over the property to the party who won in

the trial court since it has been established in the courts that there existed a temple on the site

where Babri Masjid was erected.

B. Government may handover the property to the party who succeeds in the

above mentioned Civil Appeals (10866-10867 of 20110) filed in the Supreme Court. But,

since the Supreme Court has asked, by its order dated August 10, 2015, for translation of the

entire documents, there could be a legitimate apprehension that it is not inclined to hear the

matter at an urgent date.

C. A Presidential Reference, under Article 143 of the Indian Constitution, may

be made to the Supreme Court of India in order to seek a solution to the title dispute. But

Page 44: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

44

there are greater chances that the Supreme Court may return it unanswered stating that it is a

political matter and the solution lies outside the Court.

D. A law by consensus may be enacted dealing with the division of property

which would be acceptable to all the parties. However, the details of the solution need to be

worked out in advance by the parties involved and such a solution should be made a part of

the statute itself.

The biggest challenge of this process of enacting a law is that it is susceptible to

challenge in the courts.

E. The Government may acquire the entire land and distribute the property in a

way it deems fit by working out a political solution which would involve consultation with

the parties involved.

Again there may be some parties who would be aggrieved by this solution and may

object to such acquisition proceeding and the challenge to the acquisition of land may take

some time to be disposed off. It is also a question as to whether Government can acquire land

and distribute it for a religious purpose.

Conclusion

It is suggested that the solution to arrive at a consensus through a political process is

the best possible solution. The process would require that through consent of all parties a law

be framed settling the matter once and for all, the details for which need to be worked out in

advance.

As a first step it is suggested that the government return the undisputed land to the

owners and restrict the dispute between the parties to the disputed land only. The solution can

only be forthcoming if the dispute is limited.

The solution to the dispute may take some more time but it is essential that concrete

steps may be taken towards its settlement. The present nationalist government, enjoying wide

confidence across all spectrum of public, is the best suited to take such brave steps.

Summary of Report of the Excavation Conducted by

Archaeological Survey of India

Dr.A.K.Sharma1

Excavation at the disputed site of Rama Janmabhumi Babri Masjid was carried out by

the Archaeological Survey of India from 12th March, 2003 to 7th August, 2003. During this

period, as per the directions of the Hon’ble High Court, Lucknow, 82 trenches were

excavated to verify the anomalies mentioned in the report of the Ground Penetrating Radar

Survey which was conducted at the site prior to taking up the excavations. A total number of

82 trenches along with some of their baulks were checked for anomalies and anomaly

alignments. The anomalies were confirmed in the trenches in the form of pillar bases,

structures, floors and foundation though no such remains were noticed in some of them at the

stipulated depths and spots. Besides the 82 trenches, a few more making a total of 90 finally

were also excavated keeping in view the objective fixed by the Hon’ble High Court to

confirm the structures.

The results of the excavation are summarized as hereunder:

The Northern Black Polished Ware (NBPW) using people were the first to occupy the

disputed site at Ayodhya during the first millennium B.C. although no structural activities

were encountered in limited area probed, the material culture is represented by terracotta

figurines of female deities showing archaic features, beads of terracotta and glass, wheels and

fragments of votive tanks etc. The ceramic industry has the collection of NBPW, the main

diagnostic trait of the period besides the grey, black slipped and red wares. A round signet

with legend in Asokan Brahmi is another important find of this level. On the basis of material

equipment and 14 C dates, this period may be assigned to circa 1000 B.C. to 300 B.C.

The Sunga horizon (second-first century B.C.) comes next in the order of the cultural

occupation at the site. The typical terracotta mother goddess, human and animal figurines,

beads, hairpin, engraver etc. represent the cultural matrix of this level. The pottery collection

includes black slipped, red and grey wares etc. the stone and brick structure found from this

level mark the beginning of the structural activity at the site.

The Kushan period (first to third century A.D.) followed the Sunga occupation.

Terracotta human and animal figurines, fragments of votive tanks, beads, antimony rod, hair

pin, bangle fragments and ceramic industry comprising red ware represent the typical Kushan

occupation at the site. Another important feature of this period is the creation of large sized

structures as witnessed by the massive structure running into twenty-two courses.

The advent of Guptas (fourth to sixth century A.D.) did not bring any qualitative

change in building activity although the period is known for its Classical artistic elements.

However, this aspect is represented by the typical terracotta figurines and a copper coin with

the legend Sri Chandra (Gupta) and illustrative potsherds.

During the Post-Gupta-Rajput period (seventh to tenth century A.D.), too the site has

witnessed structural activity mainly constructed of burnt bricks. However, among the

exposed structures, there stands a circular brick shrine which speaks of its functional utility

for the first time. To recapitulate quickly, exteriorly on plan, it is circular whereas internally

squarish with an entrance from the cast. Though the structure is damaged, the northern wall

still retains a provision for pranala, i.e., water chute which is a distinct feature of

contemporary temples already known from the Ganga-Yamuna plain.

Subsequently, during the early medieval period (eleventh-twelfth century A.D.) a

huge structure, nearly 50 m in north-south orientation was constructed which seems to have

been short-lived, as only four of the fifty pillar bases exposed during the excavation belong to

this level with a brick crush floor. On the remains of the above structure was constructed a

massive structure with at least three structural phases and three successive floors attached

with it. The architectural members of the earlier short-lived massive structure with stencil cut

foliage pattern and other decorative motifs were reused in the construction of the

monumental structure having a huge pillared hall (or two halls) which is different from

residential structures, providing sufficient evidence of a construction of public usage which

remained under of a construction of public usage which remained under existence for a long

time during the period VII (Medieval-Sultanate level – twelfth to sixteenth century A.D.) It

was over the top of this construction during the early sixteenth century, the disputed structure

was constructed directly resting over it. There is sufficient proof of existence of a massive

and monumental structure having a minimum dimension of 50 % 30 m in north-south and

east-west directions respectively just below the disputed structure. In course of present

Page 47: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

47

excavations nearly 50 pillar bases with brick bat foundation, below calcrete blocks topped by

sandstone blocks were found. The pillar bases exposed during the present excavation in

northern and southern areas also give an idea of the length of the massive wall of the earlier

construction with which they are associated and which might have been originally around 60

m (of which the 50 m length is available at present). The centre of the central chamber of the

disputed structure falls just over the central point of the length of the massive wall of the

preceding period which could not be excavated due to presence of Ram Lala at the spot in the

make shift structure. This area is roughly 15 % 15 m on the raised platform. Towards east of

this central point a circular depression with projection on the west, cut into the large sized

brick pavement, signity the place where some important object was placed. Terracotta lamps

from the various trenches and found in a group in the levels of Periods VII in trench G2 are

associated with the structural phase.

In the last phase of the period VII glazed ware sherds make their appearance and

continue in the succeeding levels of the next period where they are accompanied by glazed

tiles which were probably used in the original construction of the disputed structure. Similar

is the case of celadon and porcelain sherds recovered in a very less quantity they come from

the secondary context. Animal bones have been recovered from various levels of different

periods, but skeletal remains noticed in the trenches in northern and southern areas belong to

the Period IX as the grave pits have been found cut into the deposition coeval with the late

disputed structures and are scaled by the top deposit.

It is worthwhile to observe that the various structures exposed right from the Sunga to

Gupta period do not speak either about their nature or functional utility as no evidence has

come to approbate them. Another noteworthy feature is that is was only during and after

Period IV (Gupta level) onwards up the Period IX (late and post-Mughal level) that the

regular habitational deposits disappear in the concerned levels and the structural phases are

associated with either structural debris or filling material taken out from the adjoining area to

level the ground for construction purpose. As a result of which much of the earlier material in

the form of pottery, terracottas and other objects of preceding periods, particularly of Period I

(NBPW level) and Period III (Kushan level) are found in the deposits of later periods mixed

along time till the Period VIII (Mughal level) when the disputed structure was built which

was confined to a limited area and population settled around it as evidenced by the increase

Page 48: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

48

in contemporary archaeological material including pottery. The same is further attested by

the increase in contemporary archaeological material including pottery. The same is further

attested by the conspicuous absence of habitational structures such as house-complexes,

soakage pits, soakage jars, ring wells, drains, wells, hearths, kilns or furnaces etc. from

Period IV (Gupta level) onwards and in particular from Period VI (Early Medieval-Rajput

level) and Period VII (Medieval-Sultancate level).

The site has also proved to be significant for taking back its antiquarian remains for

the first time to the middle of the thirteenth century B.C. (1250-130 B.C.) on the analogy of

the C14 dates. The lowest deposit above the natural soil represents the NBPW period and

therefore the earliest remains may belong to the thirteenth century B.C. which is confirmed

by two more consistent C14 dates from the NBPW level (Period I), viz. 910-100 B.C. and

880-100 B.C.) These dates are from trench G7. Four more dates from the upper deposit

though showing presence of NBPW and associated Pottery are determined by Radio-Carbon

dating as 780-80 B.C., 710-90 B.C., 530-70 B.C. and 320-80 B.C. In the light of the above

dates in association with the Northern Black Polished Ware (NBPW) which is generally

accepted to be between circa 600 B.C. to 300 B.C. it can be pushed back to circa 1000 B.C.

and even if a solitary date, three centuries earlier is not associated with NBPW, the human

activity at the site dates back to circa thirteenth century B.C. on the basis of the scientific

dating method providing the only archaeological evidence of such an early date of the

occupation of the site.

The Hon’ble High Court, in order to get sufficient archaeological evidence on the

issue involved “whether there was any temple/structure which was demolished and mosque

was constructed on the disputed site” as stated on page I and further on p. 5 of their order

dated 5th March 2003, had given directions to the Archaeological Survey of India to excavate

at the disputed site where the GPR Survey has suggested evidence of anomalies which could

be structure, pillars, foundation walls, slab flooring etc. which could be confirmed by

excavation. Now, viewing in totality and taking into account the archaeological evidence of a

massive structure just below the disputed structure and evidence of continuity in structural

phases from the tenth century onwards up to the construction of the disputed structure along

with the yield of stone ande decorated bricks as well as mutilated sculpture of divine couple

and carved architectural members including foliage patterns, amalaka, kapotapali doorjamb

Shri Ram Temple: Whether Reconciliation is Possible?

Ashok Mehta1

In the present paper the emphasis is on “Whether under present legal scenario

reconciliation is possible on Sri Ram Temple Construction?” The paper is relying upon the

judgement of High Court (30.09.2010) as well as apex court (24.10.1996)

IN RE AYODHYA MATTER

Whether a Hindu temple or any Hindu religious structure existed prior to the

construction of the structure (including the premises of the inner and outer courtyards of such

structure), commonly known as the Ram Janma Bhumi-Babri Masjid, in the area in which the

structure stood in village Kot Ramachandra in Ayodhya, in Pargana Haveli Avadh, in Tehsil

Faizabad Sadar, in the district of Faizabad of the State of Uttar Pradesh, which is located in

Revenue Plot Nos. 159 and 160 in the said village Kot Ramachandra2.

The Central Government under the said Ordinance proposes to settle the said dispute

after obtaining the opinion of the Supreme Court of India and in terms of the said opinion3.

Therefore, on 7th Jan, 1993 in exercise of the powers conferred upon by Clause (1) of

article 143 of the Constitution of India, the President referred the following question to the

Supreme Court of India for consideration and opinion thereon, namely,

Whether a Hindu temple or any Hindu religious structure existed prior to the

construction of the Ram Janma Bhumi-Babri Masjid (including the premises of the inner and

outer courtyards of such structure) in the area on which the structure stood1? On 14.09.1994

the learned Solicitor General made the following statement in response:-

Government stands by the policy of secularism and of even-handed treatment of all

religious communities. The Acquisition of Certain Areas at Ayodhya Act, 1993 as well as

the Presidential Reference, have the objective of maintaining public order and promoting

communal harmony and the spirit of common brother-hood amongst the people of India.

Government is committed to the construction of a Ram temple and a mosque, but their

actual location will be determined only after the Supreme Court renders its opinion in the

Presidential Reference.

Government will treat the finding of the Supreme Court on the question of fact referred

under Article 143 of the Constitution as a verdict which is final and binding.

In the light of the Supreme Court's opinion and consistent with it, Government will

make efforts to resolve the controversy by a process of negotiations. Government is

confident that the opinion of the Supreme Court will have a salutary effect on the attitudes of

the communities and they will no longer take conflicting positions on the factual issue settled

by the Supreme Court.

If efforts at a negotiated settlement as aforesaid do not succeed, Government is

committed to enforce a solution in the light of the Supreme Court's opinion and consistent

with it, Government's action in this regard will be even-handed in respect of both the

communities. If the question referred is answered in the affirmative, namely, that a Hindu

temple/structure did exist prior to the construction of the demolished structure, Government

action will be in support of the wishes of the Hindu community. If, on the other hand, the

question is answered in the negative, namely, that no such Hindu temple/structure existed at

the relevant time, then Government action will be in support of the wishes of the Muslim

community2. There after the learned Solicitor General was asked to clarify whether the

1Para-104, Page-427-1994 VI SCC. 2 Para-105, Page-427-28 1994 VI SCC.

Page 52: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

52

Central Government proposed to act in support of either community's wishes as presently

known or as ascertained after the answer to the reference was given and negotiations had

failed. The learned Solicitor General was unable to get instructions in this behalf from the

Central Government. It is fair to say that he had not much time to do so as the arguments

were closed on the day after the clarification was sought.

"During the negotiations aimed at finding an amicable solution to the dispute one issue

which came to the fore was whether a Hindu temple had existed on the site occupied by the

disputed structure and whether it was demolished on Babar's order for the construction of the

masjid.... It was stated by certain Muslim leaders that if these assertions were proved,

the Muslims would voluntarily hand over the disputed shrine to the Hindus".1 The

Supreme Court observed at a later stage when the exact area acquired which is needed, for

achieving the professed purpose of acquisition, can be determined, it would not merely be

permissible but also desirable that the superfluous excess area is released from acquisition

and reverted to its earlier owner. The challenge to acquisition of any part of the adjacent area

on the ground that it is unnecessary for achieving the objective of settling the dispute relating

to the disputed area cannot be examined at this stage but, in case the superfluous area is not

returned to its owner even after the exact area needed for the purpose is finally determined, it

would be open to the owner of any such property to then challenge the superfluous

acquisition being unrelated to the purpose of acquisition. Rejection of the challenge on this

ground to acquisition at this stage, by the undisputed owners of any such property situate in

the vicinity of the disputed area, is with the reservation of this liberty to them. There is no

contest to their claim of quashing the acquisition of the adjacent properties by anyone except

the Central Government which seeks to justify the acquisition on the basis of necessity. On

the construction of the statute made by us, this appears to be the logical, appropriate and just

view to take in respect of such adjacent properties in which none other than the undisputed

owner claims title and interest2.

53

So it is with specific caveat of the Central Government's duty to restore it to its owner,

as indicated earlier, if it is found later to be unnecessary; and reservation of liberty to the

owner to challenge the needless acquisition when the total need has been determined1.

The apex court further observed:-

Ostensibly, the alternate dispute resolution mechanism adopted is that of a

simultaneous Reference made the same day under Article-143 (1) of the Constitution to

this Court for decision of the question referred. It is clear from the issues framed in those

suits that the core question for determination in the suits is not covered by the Reference

made, and it also does not include therein the defences raised by the Muslim community. It

is also clear that the answer to the question referred, whatever it may be, will not lead to

the answer of the core question for determination in the pending suits and it will not, by

itself, resolve the long-standing dispute relating to the disputed area. Reference made

under Article-143 (1) cannot, therefore, be treated as an effective alternate dispute

resolution mechanism in substitution of the pending suits which are abated by Section-4

(3) of the Act. For this reason, it was urged, that the abatement of pending suits amounts to

denial of the judicial remedy available to the Muslim community for resolution of the

dispute and grant of the relief on that basis in accordance with the scheme of redress under

the rule of law envisaged by the Constitution. The validity of Sub-section (3) of

Section 4 is assailed on this ground.

To appreciate the stand of the Central Government on this point, we permitted the

learned Solicitor General to make a categorical statement for the Union of India in this

behalf. The final statement made by the learned Solicitor General of India in writing dated

14.9.1994 forming a part of the record, almost at the conclusion of the hearing, also does not

indicate that the answer to the question referred would itself be decisive of the core question

in controversy between the parties to the suits relating to the claim over the disputed site.

According to the statement, the Central Government proposes to resort to a process of

negotiation between the rival claimants after getting the answer to the question referred, and

1 (Para-57, Page-411 1994 VI SCC)

Page 54: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

54

if the negotiations fail, then to adopt such course as it may find appropriate in the

circumstances.1

The Supreme Court have taken on the question of validity of the statute (Act No. 33 of

1993) and as a result of upholding the validity of the entire statute, except Section-

4(3) thereof, resulting in revival of the pending suits and legal proceedings wherein the

dispute between the parties has to be adjudicated, the Reference made under Article -143

(1) becomes superfluous and unnecessary. For this reason, it is unnecessary for us to

examine the merits of the submissions made on the maintainability of this Reference.

Accordingly, very respectfully decline to answer the Reference and return the same.2

It may be said that the revive of the suits not debar the Central Government from

negotiating to bring an amicable solution to the dispute at Ayodhya and such negotiations

depend upon the answer given to the question posed by the Reference.3

It is not our suggestion that a court of law is not competent to decide such a question. It

can be done if expert evidence of archaeologists and historians is led, and is tested in cross

examination.

The principal protagonists of the two stands appearing in the cases will lead evidence

cross examine. Learned Solicitor General stated that the Central Government would place

before the court the material that it had collected from the two sides during the course of

earlier negotiations the Court being well equipped to examine and evaluate such material,

would have to appoint experts in the field to do so, and their evaluation would go

unchallenged. Apart from the inherent in-advisability of rendering a judicial opinion on such

evaluation, the opinion would be liable to the criticism of one or both sides that it was

rendered without hearing them or their evidence. This would ordinarily be of no significance

for they had chosen to stay away, but this opinion is intended to create a public climate for

negotiations and the criticism would find the public ear, to say nothing of the fact that it

would impair this Court's credibility. 1 (Para-61-62, Page-412 1994 VI SCC). 2 (Para-83, Page-418 1994 VI SCC). 3 (Para-145, Page-439 1994 VI SCC).

Ayodhya is a storm that will pass. The dignity and honour of the Supreme Court

cannot be compromised because of it.1 According to apex court the result is that all the

pending suits and legal proceedings stand revived, and they shall be proceeded with, and

decided, in accordance with law. It follows further as a result of the remaining enactment

being upheld as valid that the disputed area has vested in the Central Government as a

statutory receiver with a duty to manage and administer it in the manner provided in the Act

maintaining status quo therein by virtue of the freeze enacted in Section 7(2); and the Central

Government would exercise its power of vesting that property further in another authority or

body or trust in accordance with Section 6(1) of the Act in terms of the final adjudication in

the pending suits. The power of the courts in the pending legal proceedings to give directions

to the Central Government as a statutory receiver would be circumscribed and limited to the

extent of the area left open by the provisions of the Act. The Central Government would be

bound to take all necessary steps to implement the decision in the suits and other legal

proceedings and to hand over the disputed area to the party found entitled to the same on the

final adjudication made in the (sic). The parties to the suits would be entitled to amend their

pleadings suitably in the light of our decision.2

The Supreme Court at last observed the hearing left us wondering why the dispute

cannot be resolved in the same manner and in the same spirit in which the matter was argued,

particularly when some of the participants are common and are in a position to negotiate and

resolve the dispute. We do hope this hearing has been the commencement of that process

which will ensure an amicable resolution of the dispute and it will not end with the hearing

of this matter. This is a matter suited essentially to resolution by negotiations which does not

end in a winner and a loser while adjudication leads to that end. It is in the national interest

that there is no loser at the end of the process adopted for resolution of the dispute so that the

final outcome does not leave behind any rancour in anyone. This can be achieved by a

negotiated solution on the basis of which a decree can be obtained in terms of such solution

1 (Para-151-152, Page-441 1994 VI SCC). 2 (Para-84, Page-418 1994 VI SCC).

in these suits. Unless a solution is found which leaves everyone happy, that cannot be the

beginning for continued harmony between "we the people of India"1.

The suits before Special Full Bench revived. At this juncture, it may also be noted that

Sri Zafaryab Jilani, learned counsel for Waqf Board and other Muslim parties had given his

statement under Order X Rule 2, C.P.C. on 22.4.2009 and categorically stated that his

parties did not dispute that Lord Ram was born at Ayodhya (previously this was also

an area of dispute between the parties). Sri Jilani during arguments repeatedly

contended that it was not disputed that Lord Ram was born at Ayodhya. However, he

very seriously disputed the assertion that Lord Ram was born at the premises in dispute.

Similar statement under order X Rule 2 C.P.C. was given on the same date by Messrs M.A.

Siddiqui and Syed Irfan Ahmad learned counsel for other Muslim parties. The statement is

quoted below:-

“For the purposes of this case there is no dispute about the faith of Hindu

devotees of Lord Rama regarding the birth of Lord Rama at Ayodhya as described in

Balmiki Ramayana or as existing today. It is, however, disputed and denied that the site

of Babri Masjid was the place of birth of Lord Rama. It is also denied that there was

any Ram Janam Bhoomi Temple at the site of Babri Masjid at any time whatsoever2.

It shall be better before proceeding further to discuss Archeological Survey of India

report.

A.S.I. Report: - Through orders dated 01.08.2002 & 23.10.2002, Geo Radiological

Survey of the ground beneath the premises in dispute was suo-motu ordered to be held. The

said order was passed, in spite of opposition of almost all the parties, under Order XVI Rule

14, Order XVIII Rule 18, Order XXVI Rule 10-A and Section 151, C.P.C. G.P.R. Survey

was conducted by Tojo-Vikas International Pvt. Ltd. It submitted the report on 17.02.2003.

According to the report some anomalies were observed. Accordingly, the court through order

dated 05.03.2003 directed excavation by A.S.I. The A.S.I. after excavation submitted the

report on 25.08.2003. The last para of Summary of Results of the report is quoted below:

“The Hon'ble High Court, in order to get sufficient archaeological evidence on the issue

involved “whether there was any temple/structure which was demolished and mosque was

constructed on the disputed site” as stated on page 1 and further on p. 5 of their order dated 5

march 2003, had given directions to the Archaeological Survey of India to excavate at the

disputed site where the GPR Survey has suggested evidence of anomalies which could be

structure, pillars, foundation walls, slab flooring etc. which could be confirmed by

excavation . Now, viewing in totality and taking into account the archaeological evidence of

a massive structure just below the structure and evidence of continuity in structural phases

from the tenth century onwards upto the construction of the disputed structure alongwith the

yield of stone and decorated bricks as well as mutilated sculpture of divine couple and carved

architectural' members including foliage patterns, amalaka, kapotapali doorjamb with semi-

circular pilaster, broken octagonal shaft of black schist 130 pillar, lotus motif, circular shrine

having pranala (waterchute) in the north, fifty pillar bases in association of the huge

structure, are indicative of remains which are distinctive features found associated with the

temples of north India.”1

Special Full Bench judgement dated 30.09.2010 has given following findings. As per

justice SU Khan, J.:- Mosque was constructed over the ruins of temples which were lying in

utter ruins since a very long time before the construction of mosque and some material

thereof was used in construction of the mosque.

As per Justice Sudhir Agarwal, J.:-

The area covered under the central dome of the disputed structure is the birthplace of

Lord Rama as per faith and belief of Hindus. The building in dispute was constructed after

demolition of NonIslamic religious structure, i.e., a Hindu temple. As per Justice D.V.

Sharma, J.:-

The disputed site is the birth place of Lord Ram. Place of birth is a juristic person and

is a deity. It is personified as the spirit of divine worshipped as birth place of Lord Rama as a

child. Spirit of divine ever remains present everywhere at all times for anyone to invoke at

any shape or form in accordance with his own aspirations and it can be shapeless and

formless also.

The disputed structure was constructed on the site of old structure after demolition of

the same. The Archeological Survey of India has proved that the structure was a massive

Hindu religious structure.

It is established that the property in suit is the site of Janm Bhumi of Ram Chandra Ji

and Hindus in general had the right to worship Charan, Sita Rasoi, other idols and other

object of worship existed upon the property in suit. It is also established that Hindu have

been worshipping the place in dispute as Janm Sthan i.e. a birth place as deity and visiting it

as a sacred place, place of pilgrimage as of right since time immemorial. After the

construction of the disputed structure it is proved the deities were installed inside the

disputed structure on 22/23.12.1949. It is also proved that the outer courtyard was in

exclusive possession of Hindus and they were worshipping throughout and in the inner

courtyard (in the disputed structure) they were also worshipping. It is established that the

disputed structure cannot be treated as a mosque as it came into existence against the tenets

of Islam.

Before reserving Judgement the Special Full Bench passed following order dated

26.07.2010:-

“Arguments in all the four suits concluded. Arguments in Suits No.1, 3 & 4 had

already concluded. Today, the arguments in Suit No.5 have been concluded. This newly

constituted bench heard the arguments for 90 working days starting 131 from 11.01.2010.

and Sri Ved Prakash, Advocates; and Sri S.P. Srivastava, Addl. Chief Standing Counsel

advanced their submissions on behalf of respective parties quite ably and we put on record

Page 59: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

our appreciation for the assistance they have rendered to this Court and the cordial

atmosphere they have maintained in the Court.

We greatly appreciate not only the arguments of learned counsel for all the parties but

also the manner in which the arguments were advanced. No learned counsel interrupted the

arguments of any other learned counsel. Learned counsels were quite careful while

advancing their arguments and none of them said any such thing which could injure the

feeling of the other side.

That on 13th Sep. 2010 on Ramesh Chandra Tripathi, defendant no. 17 in O.O.S no. 4

of 1989 preferred application purporting to be under Section 89 C.P.C. He requested for

deferment of the pronouncement of judgment and also to direct the parties to resolve the

dispute through mediation/ conciliation /arbitration and/or in such manner as this Court may

deem fit.

The court observed all the parties through their counsel have not only seriously

opposed this application but they have termed it as a "serious mischief" on the part of the

applicant and, therefore, have requested this Court to reject it with exemplary costs.

The court further observed at the outset Court would like to place it on record that a

dispute like the present one, is settled amicably between the parties, it would be the most

welcome solution and we have no reason to discourage it. There cannot be a quarrel with the

proposition that the best way of dealing with a matter like the present one is to resolve it with

the consent of the parties.

Efforts at different levels were made rigorously, persistently and with due seriousness

but in vain. Such efforts were made not only by the parties concerned but at the level of

different authorities so much so, that even three Prime Ministers at different times took

serious initiative to find out whether the dispute can be resolved amicably and peacefully and

took all possible steps in this direction.

It is in furtherance thereof; even legislation has twice come into being to enable the

parties to reach at an amicable solution. Several times the matter was taken to the Apex

Page 60: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

60

Court also where, as we are informed, the Hon'ble Court did observe for amicable settlement

in the matter. A White Paper was published by the Government of India and even a

Presidential Reference was made to the Apex Court.

At the instance of the then Prime Minister a very high power committee was

constituted, representatives of both the parties and several other persons were allowed to

participate in the meeting in presence of high officials including the Minister of State in the

Central Government but with no result.

The court observed that in its Judgment in Dr. Ismail Farooqui (Supra) the Apex

Court observed that ‘here is a kind of dispute which ought to be decided amicably’ and

expressed its hope that the parties should take steps in this direction. One and half decade

since then has passed but with no result.

We may also notice that while returning the Reference, the Apex Court observed that

the same cannot be answered since this was a matter in issue in suits pending before this

Court and the same have to be decided in the light of the evidence adduced by the parties.

In a period of about eleven months the Court held actual hearing for 75 days and

throughout the said period this Court made such efforts though also continued with the

hearing since it did not intend to give an impression to the parties that the Court is not

capable of hearing and deciding the matter or that the Court is reluctant or that the Court

otherwise does not want to decide the matter even if there is no otherwise hindrance or

obstruction in such a course.

The Court further observed we tried to continue with the hearing on day to day basis

and in a period of about seven and half months the matter was actually heard on 90 days.

During this period also, unrelently, we made efforts by requesting learned counsel for the

parties to find out the possibility of compromise, if any. Some of the parties very bluntly told

us that in the nature of the rights asserted by them, scope of compromise was absolutely nil.

None was ready to part away even a single inch of land and said that it is for the Court to

decide but they cannot make any surrender whatsoever.

Page 61: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

61

When we reserved the judgment on 26th July 2010, we made another effort and passed

order informing the parties that on 27th July 2010 we shall sit in Chamber to find out any

possibility of resolving the dispute amicably taking recourse of Section 89 CPC. For a few

ours on 27th July 2010 we made our efforts but the learned counsels for parties very frankly

and succinctly expressed their view that there is no question of any settlement on their part in

the matter and due to the nature of the claim they assert it cannot be surrendered to any

extent.

Faced with the situation but undeterred, still having some hope we passed order on 27th

July 2010, leaving it open to the parties that before delivery of judgement if they find out any

possibility of compromise, they may approach the OSD requesting for formation of Bench.

This shows endeavour on the part of the Judiciary at the highest level in the country as well

as the Province, in the last few decades. This also shows our anxiety for finding out ways and

means, if any, for amicable solution of the dispute during the course of final hearing.

But then the moot question is how long it should/can continue. Is it ad infinitum? The

applicant kept silence over the matter throughout. In his application neither he has averred

that there is any possibility of settlement of dispute outside the Court or otherwise nor it is

mentioned that during this entire period he took any step whatsoever persuading the parties in

suits to arrive at a settlement and/or probing the possibility of the settlement of dispute

amicably.

The court reacted that these matters are pending for the last six decades inasmuch as

the first suit was filed on 16th January 1950. After transfer of the suits to this Court three

Judges are continuously engaged for the last more than 21 years. In the meantime, on several

occasions the matter has also travelled and consumed time of the Apex Court as well. Is it

what we have to deliver to our future generation that the courts of law in India are not

capable to decide cases for generations and on a mere drop of a hat, an excuse is found to

defer the matter or adjourn the case? Are we here to find out ways and means of deferring

adjudication or to make adjudication? No case, no dispute and no apprehension can be above

the honest discharge of constitutional function by an independent judiciary.

The people of India are already having serious complaints in abundance in recent past

against the judicial system of this country that it keeps the matter lingering on for generations

and attempt to decide cases is minimal. With the increased awareness, the people are getting

conscious of their right and do not hesitate in asserting it. If the enforcement of rights get

deferred not because of any slackness on their part, but due to extremely slow pace or

inaction on the part of judiciary, their complaint cannot be levelled frivolous. In a system of

good governance, effective, independent judicial system is not only the requirement but the

real crux lies whether it can deliver justice within reasonable time; whether it can decide the

issue expeditiously and before the patience of the people exhausts? These are some of the

aspects which need be seriously taken up by the Bench and Bar both. This is the high time

when not only the Presiding Officers of the Court but also the members of the Bar who are

also officers of the Court should ponder over seriously and find out the way in which cases

may be decided expeditiously instead of inventing the way for their deferment and

adjournments. The courts are meant for adjudication and not for adjournments or deferment.

All the parties have seriously opposed this application and have termed this as a

mischievous attempt on the part of the applicant in not allowing these cases decided even

after six decades, particularly when in the judicial proceedings i.e., during the course of

hearing learned counsel for the applicant did not show any interest whatsoever except of

ensuring his technical presence. From the tenor of the application and also in the absence of

any ground, let alone good ground, the request for deferment of pronouncement of verdict

and that too just about ten days before the date of its pronouncement, we are constrained to

observe that it lacks bona fide.

Application lacks bona fide and is a clear attempt to divert, deviate and also to create

obstruction in final disposal of this matter after more than six decades without there being

any reason whatsoever. Considering the facts and circumstances and also the fact that the

applicant without any lawful excuse or reason has filed this application, The court held the

attempt mischievous, and, therefore, imposed exemplary cost of Rs. 50,000 and rejected the

application.

The courts reaction was specific that since the media reports have been referred we

find it appropriate to say a few words in this regard also. Of late we have found that the

reports in media- whether electronic or print- are not wholly correct. Instead of giving correct

information to enlighten the masses, incomplete and sometimes incorrect information is

given, more as sensation than communication of correct information. The latter is the prime

duty and obligation of a responsible media. It appears that in some cases, the people try to

highlight a few words in a manner so as to create a sensation. The casualty in such approach

is correctness of the information. The media people needs to exercise more care and caution

and be more precise. We ourselves have experienced that the information regarding

proceedings of this Court have also been conveyed to masses, at some places, incorrectly. At

times when the published information relates to a serious situation or sensitive matter which

may likely to have serious repercussions, the responsibility of media to accuracy and

precision of information is much more. Needless to give a recent illustration where we found

such a miss when there was a terrorist attack in Bombay. We do not intend to check or

restrain the independence of media world. It is they who form the information limb of any

country providing awareness and entitlement to masses but then such information must be

ensured to be correct.

A Court passes an order sitting in the Court Room which is normally known to the

parties in the case and, therefore, used to confine to few individuals. The masses acquire

information about the happenings in court through media. It is therefore, their utmost and

sacrosanct duty towards masses to whom they actually serve to provide correct information

so that it may avoid any possible backlash or unwanted reaction particularly in a case like the

one we are faced with. Any inaccuracy in information is likely to cause much more serious

harm. We add no more on this. We hope and trust that our observations shall be taken in

correct perspective and would give a message to powerful wing, which is commonly known

as the Fourth State. They shall exhibit their responsibility in a more vigilant, alert, self

conscious and self restraint manner so as to sub serve the people of this Country in a best

possible and responsible manner.

A lot of news for the last few days are coming about the alleged apprehension towards

security of the members of this Bench and the measures taken by the Government in this

Page 64: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

regard. We intend to place on record and also want to tell everybody that neither we have any

apprehension nor do we feel any kind of insecurity in discharge of our solemn duty and

obligation under the constitution of India. We have full faith and confidence in people of this

country who are our real protectors and at whose strength of confidence we work. It is not

that we lack any confidence in the Executive in maintaining law and order but the Judiciary

of this Country really derive its power from the confidence, the people of India have in it,

and not from the State's police power. It is confidence of the people which provides us

courage and boldness in discharge of our duties independently, objectively and without fear

or favour. We have read in the newspapers that the Prime Minister of the country has assured

the people that The Government is capable of meeting any contingency. We cannot

comment, but repose confidence in the Government since they are the best Judge of whatever

is required in maintaining law and order and/or security of any individual or group of any

individuals as the case may be shall be taken care. The arrangement of security is the

responsibility of State and they are the authority to assess the requisite measures and not any

individual's own perception.

R.C. Tripathi approach apex court and on 23.09.2010 and on 28.09.2010 the petition

was dismissed. Accordingly the Special Full Bench, Allahabad High Court delivered the final

Judgement on 30 October 2010 against which appeal is pending before the Hon’ble Supreme

Court.

Reconciliation is possible

Prima-facie, the narration of the Present case, makes it very clear that there exist

elements of a settlement which may be acceptable to the parties; but the history of previous

all attempts for negotiation shows that the parties are reluctant to negotiate, though the apex

court has observed that participants are common and are in a position to negotiation.

Yes, the Judgement of the Special Full Bench, Allahabad is already there and matter

being before the Hon’ble Supreme Court the same can be the commencement of to alternate

facilitation process by all concern – the parties to suit, the Governments as well as the Apex

court.

The Supreme Court itself observed it is a matter suited essentially to resolution by

negotiations and it is in the national interest that there is no loser at the end of the

process adopted for resolution.

The parties may intransigent and at one stage everyone wants the negotiation off his

back. In a principled Negotiation parties first separate the people from the problem and focus

on interest of the society only. All concern will have to generate variety of possibilities. But

everyone will have to insist on objective standards and fair criteria.

The first step is to control the behaviour rather than reacting focus on achieving what is

wanted to be settled. Remove scepticism, bridge the gap and need to help to save face and

make the outcome appear as victory for both the sides.Please make it easy for everyone to

say “Yes”. FFii rrsstt IInnii ttiiaattee SSaammwwaadd ((NNeeggoottiiaattee ffoorr nneeggoottiiaattiioonn))..

Existence of Lord Rama at Ayodhya: Evaluation of Literary

Evidence

-Kulwant Singh Pathania1 -Dharmender Kumar2

History of the Ram Temple

Hindus have always known that the site on which Babur built his infamous structure

which has been erroneously regarded as a mosque was the site where Shree Rama, Vishnu

Incarnate, took birth in human form. It is a fact that this building did not have minarets or a

water-pool for mandatory ritual pre-prayer ablutions, which is evidence that this building was

not a mosque. It was built as a monument to celebrate the subjugation of the people of

Hindusthan by the incoming invaders. This structure, just like the Qutab Minar in Delhi, was

established as a monument to pronounce publicly ‘Quvat-ul- Islam’ – the might of Islam.

Hindus fought and sacrificed their lives to prevent the demolition of the holy temple at

Ayodhya by Babur, and on many occasions since then have attempted to regain that site back

to rebuild the temple that once had been there. During the 20th Century, particularly around

the time of Partition and thereafter, the demand for this site to be restored to Hindus was

thwarted by politicians, impelled by their need to ‘not upset’ the Muslim community. The

myth was created and perpetuated that Hindus were bent upon ‘subjugating Muslims’ and

wanting to ‘destroy their mosques’. The reality is far from it, Hindus have always supported

the concept of freedom of religious belief and expression. There are well over a million

mosques in India, with many more regularly being added to that number with the passage of

time. Hindus have not sought to damage or destroy these mosques, despite the fact that over

the centuries numerous Hindu temples and holy shrines were destroyed by the Muslim rulers.

Of these, they hold three sites as amongst the holiest – Ayodhya, the birthplace of Shree

Rama, Mathura, the birthplace of Shree Krishna, and Kashi Vishwanath in Varanasi. They

have made it clear that these three sites must be restored to the Hindus devotees. The judicial

67

process for the restoration of the Ayodhya site has been dragging on in the courts for

decades, the court’s judgement being delayed for one reason or another, year in and year out.

Need to Know about Ayodhya

There is found a lot of literary and archaeological evidence relating to the existence of

temple (Lord Rama) at the disputed site. The Allahabad Bench of the Uttar Pradesh High

Court had directed the Archaeological Survey of India to excavate in the disputed site at

Ayodhya to determine whether the Babri Masjid was built after demolishing the temple of

Lord Rama which already existed there since the time of our ancestor’s ancestors. It is

important to note, that, there have been found lot of evidence from the earlier investigations,

both literary and archaeological, that pretty much establish the pre-existence and destruction

of temples at the site where the Babri Masjid was built by Mir Baki on Babar's orders. It is

also clarified by the Allahabad Bench that Ayodhya was a Ramjanabhumi and still have to be

maintained in that form. Further it is also found from the judgment that, this land belongs to

Lord Rama and it is also revealed from the facts that the temple of Lord Rama was existing

there during the reign of Gupta dynasty.

Literary Evidence

There are basically two kinds of literary sources: written records and inscriptions.

Both written records and inscriptions are available about Ram Janmabhumi at Ayodhya. One

major inscription is that of Mir Baki himself, apparently placed on the Masjid wall when it

was built in the 16th century. Besides, there are found numerous literary records by Hindu,

Muslim and British authors. From the survey of even a small part of this vast literature, it is

found that the temple of Lord Rama was present in Ayodhya from the beginning i.e. Gupta

Dynasty.

This old temple must have been a fine one, for many of its columns have been utilized

by the Musalmans in the construction of Babar's Masjid." H.R. Neville in the Barabanki

District Gazetteer, Lucknow, 1905, pp 168-169, writes that the Janmasthan temple "was

destroyed by Babar and replaced by a mosque." Neville, in his Fyzabad District Gazetteer,

Lucknow, 1905, pp 172-177 further tells us; "The Janmasthan was in Ramkot and marked the

Page 68: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

68

birthplace of Rama. In 1528 A.D. Babar came to Ayodhya and halted here for a week. He

destroyed the ancient temple and on its site built a mosque, still known as Babar's mosque.

The materials of the old structure i.e., the temple were largely employed, and many of the

columns were in good preservation."

It was found from the historical evidence that Guru Nanak was a contemporary of

Babar, and an eyewitness to his vandalism. Nanak condemned him in the strongest terms.

The historian Harsh Narain in his book The Ayodhya Temple Mosque Dispute: Focus on

Muslim Sources, writes: "Guru Nanak, according to Bhai Man Singh's Pothi Janam Sakhi,

said to have been composed in 1787 Anno Vikrami/1730 A.D., visited Ayodhya and said to

his Muslim disciple Mardana: 'Mardania! eh Ajudhia nagari Sri Ramachandraji ki hai. So,

chal, iska darsan kari'e. Translation: 'Mardana! This Ayodhya city belongs to Sri

Ramachandra Ji. So let us have its darsana.'"

This indicates that Nanak visited Ayodhya shortly before the destruction of the Rama

temple by Babar. Another work by Baba Sukhbasi Ram gives a similar description, again

suggesting that Nanak visited Ayodyha before the temple was destroyed by his

contemporary, the Mughal invader Babar. Muslim sources also give a similar description in

1855; Amir Ali Amethawi led a Jihad for the recapture of Hanuman Garhi, situated a few

hundred yards from the Babri Masjid, which at that time was in the control of Hindus. This

Jihad took place during the reign of Nawab Wajid Ali Shah of Oudh. A Muslim writer, one

Mirza Jan, was a participant in that Jihad. His book Hadiqah-i-Shuhada was published in

1856, i.e. the year following the failed Jihad. Miza Jan tells us: “wherever they found

magnificent temples of the Hindus ever since the establishment of Sayyid Salar Mas'ud

Ghazi's rule, the Muslim rulers in India built mosques, monasteries, and inns, appointed

mu'azzins, teachers and store-stewards, spread Islam vigorously, and vanquished the Kafirs.

Likewise they cleared up Faizabad and Avadh, too from the filth of reprobation (infidelity),

because it was a great centre of worship and capital of Rama's father. Where there stood a

great temple (of Ramajanmasthan), there they built a big mosque, ... Hence what a lofty

mosque was built there by king Babar in 1528 A.D., under the patronage of Musa

Ashiqqan!”. Other Muslim authors than Mirza Jan also cite the work, which appears to have

been widely available in the 18th and 19th centuries. Then there is found the evidence of the

Page 69: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

69

three inscriptions at the site of the mosque itself, at least two of which mention its

construction by Mir Baqi (or Mir Khan) on the orders of Babar. Babar's Memoir mentions

Mir Baqi as his governor of Ayodhya. Some parts of the inscription were damaged during a

riot in 1934, but later pieced together with minor loss. In any event, it was well known long

before that, recorded for instance in Beveridge's translation of Babur-Nama published in

1926.

The Temple City of Ayodhya

Dr. S.P. Gupta (former director of the Allahabad Museum), has to say about recent

excavations at Ayodhya: “At Ayodhya, Professor Lal (B.B. Lal. Former Director General of

ASI) took as many as 14 ditches at different places to ascertain the distant past of the site. It

was then found that the history of the township was at least three thousand years old, if not

more... When seen in the light of 20 black stone pillars, 16 of which were found re-used and

standing in position as corner stones of landing place for the disputed domed structure of the

'mosque', Prof. Lal felt that the pillar bases may have belonged to a Hindu temple built on

archaeological levels formed prior to 13th century AD.” On further archaeological and other

evidence, Lal concluded that the pillar bases must have belonged to a Hindu temple that

stood between 12th and the 16th centuries. What this means is that Lal had found evidence for

possibly two temples, one that existed before the 13th century, and another between the 13th

and the 16th centuries. This corresponds very well indeed with history and tradition. We

know that this area was ravaged by Muslim invaders following Muhammad Ghori's defeat

of Prithviraj Chauhan in the second battle of Tarain in 1192 AD. This was apparently

rebuilt and remained in use until destroyed again in the 16th century by Babar.

Summary of the ASI Report on Ayodhya excavations (August 31, 2003)

Excavation at the disputed site of Rama Janmabhumi and Babri Masjid was carried out

by the Archaeological Survey of India from 12 March 2003 to 7 August 2003. During this

period, as per the directions of the Hon'ble High Court, Lucknow, 82 trenches were

excavated to verify the anomalies mentioned in the report of the Ground Penetrating Radar

Survey which was conducted at the site prior to taking up the excavations. A total number of

Page 70: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

70

82 trenches along with some of their baulks were checked for anomalies and anomaly

alignments. The anomalies were confirmed in the trenches in the form of pillar bases,

structures, floors and foundation though no such remains were noticed in some of them at the

stipulated depths and spots. Besides the 82 trenches a few more making a total of 90 finally

were also excavated keeping in view the objective fixed by the Hon'ble High Court to

confirm the structure.

The Hon'ble High Court in order to get sufficient archaeological evidence on the issue

involved whether, there was any temple/structure which was demolished and mosque was

constructed on the disputed site as stated on page 1 and further on p. 5 of their order dated 5th

march 2003 and given directions to the Archaeological Survey of India to excavate at the

disputed site where GPR Survey has suggested evidence of anomalies which could be

structure, pillars, foundation walls, slab flooring etc. which could be confirmed by

excavation. Now viewing in totality and taking into account the archaeological evidence of a

massive structure just below the disputed structure and evidence of continuity in structural

phases from the tenth century onwards up to the construction of the disputed structure along

with the yield of stone and decorated bricks as well as mutilated sculpture of divine coupe

and carved architectural members including foliage patterns, amalaka, kapolapali doorjamb

with semi-circular pilaster, broken octagonal shaft of black schist pillar, lotus motif, circular

shrine having pranala (waterchute) in the north, fifty pillar bases association of the huge

structure, are indicative of remains which are distinctive features found associated with the

temples of north India.

Evidence from the Gupta Dynasty

It is revealed from the literary evidences that, in Gupta Dynasty there was found an

ancient temple of Lord Rama during the Maharaja Vikrmaditya’s time, which is a fact of

History and hence undisputable, although there is some controversy as to which of the

Vikrmaditya resurrected the place and built a magnificent temple. It was with 84 pillars of

Kasturi, a few of which still stand in the mosque like structure at Ram Janmbhumi and tell

their own tale. That temple was desecrated and destroyed by Mir Baqi, a commander of

Babar’s hordes after Babar visited to Ayodhya, and a mosque was sought to be raised there,

Page 71: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

71

in order to please Faqir Fazal Abbas Qalander. (Nandan, in Panikkar, 1990, p. 22). That the

babri Masjid replaced a pre-existent centre of worship, is also indicated by the fact that

Hindus kept returning to the place, where more indulgent Muslim rulers allowed them to

worship on a platform just outside the mosque. (Konraad Elst, Ayodhya and After,1993.3).

Whether Ram was born at the spot where Masjid was located?

This is very vexed question where myths and facts have got mixed up in an apparently

inseparable manner. One of the reasons for this is the very period of history/ mythology

being referred to. Due to the extremely ancient nature of the period being referred to the

sources have to be examined very carefully in order to come to a particular conclusion. To

begin with while many a Historians will regard Ram as a Mythological figure, many others

are endowing the status of a historical figure to him. Noted scholar Suniti Kumar Chatterjee

maintains “the Ramayana is basically a creation by some single poet named Valmiki. There

is evidently some historical core below the surface. Some scholar of Indian history now

thinks that Rama, the hero of Ramayana was a historical person who can be relegated to a

particular period of time”(Chatterjee, 976-77, 14), Even if we grant that he was a historical

figure then the question arises whether he was born in Ayodhya? And if he was born in

Ayodhya was he born on the precise spot where the Babri Masjid is located.

According to Aihole inscription, Epigraphia Indica, (Vol. VI, 1990- 1901) Rama was

born in Treta yug, in the year around 3100 BC. The description of Ayodhya in this epic

archeological survey continuously tries to find evidences regarding that fact. One of the

archeologists B. B. Lal had concluded that, it would seem reasonable to ascribe the first

occupation of the Janmabhumi area to circa seventh century BC.”(Lal, 1976-77, 52) The

development of this area as a settlement came much later, certainly not earlier than the end of

sixth century or the first half of fifth century, when several other towns emerged in Gagentic

plains.

Supreme Court Judgment in Ayodhya case (Except puja, no religious activity)

The Bench, taking note of the 2002 order, directed that on the 67.703 acres located in

various plots detailed in the Schedule to the Acquisition of Certain Area at Ayodhya Act,

Page 72: Sri Ram Janmbhoomiavap.org.in/Uploads/Journal/Journal16.pdf · 2016; and despite a protest by a bunch of fanatics, the Seminar on the campus of Delhi University met with a resounding

72

1993, “which is vested in the Central government, no religious activity of any kind by

anyone be permitted or allowed to take place.” The Bench, while directing the status quo to

continue, made it clear that the existing ‘pujas’ in the make-shift Ram Lala temple at the

disputed site would go on as usual. It argued that the claims of Muslims, Hindus and the

Nirmohi Akhara over the disputed site were mutually exclusive and could not be shared.

The All-India Hindu Mahasabha sought endorsement of the September 30, 2010

minority verdict by Justice Dharam Veer Sharma, who favoured handing over of the entire

land to Hindus. It also said “The judgment by Justice S. U. Khan and Justice Sudhir Agarwal

should be set aside to the extent that one-third of the property in dispute has been declared in

favour of Muslims and to allot the share to them.”

"Sri Mohd. Ayub states that the mosque lies in A B C D as shown in the plaint map (sketch map) and the land around A B C D is graveyard of the Muslims as shown in it". Sri Mohd. Ayub states that the plaintiff pleads in the alternative that even if the defendants have any right in the property in suit the same have been extinguished by lapse of time. He clarifies that the same amounts to adverse possession and the rights of the defendants have extinguished by it and the plaintiff has acquired title by adverse possession."

"For the purposes of this case there is no dispute about the faith of Hindu devotees of Lord Rama regarding the birth of Lord Rama at Ayodhya as described in Balmiki Ramayana or as existing today. It is, however, disputed and denied that the site of Babri Masjid was the place of birth of Lord Rama. It is also denied that there was any Ram Janam Bhoomi Temple at the site of Babri Masjid at any time whatsoever. The existence of Nirmohi Akhara from the second half of Nineteenth Century onwards is also not disputed. It is, however, denied and disputed that Nirmohi Akhara was in existence and specially in Ayodhya in 16th Century A.D. or in 1528 A.D. and it is also denied that any idols were there in the building of the Babri Masjid up to 22nd December 1949." mijksDr ls Li"V gS fd v;ks/;k ds vfLrRo lEcU/kh lk{; tks fgUnw i{k }kjk U;k;ky; ds le{k

"The most remarkable place is that which is called Sorgodoari, that is to say, the heavenly temple; because they say, that Ram carried away from thence to heaven all the inhabitants of the city. The deserted town was repeopled and restored to its former condition by Bikaramajit, the famous king of Oojein. There was a temple here on the hight bank of the river, but Aurangzebe, ever attentive to the propagation of faith of Mohammed, and holding the heathen in abhorrence, caused it to be demolished, and replaced it with a mosque with minarets, in order to abolish the very memory of Hindoo superstition. Another mosque has been built by the Moors, to the East of this near the Sorgodoari in an edifice erected by Nabalroy, a former Hindoo governor. But a place more particularly famous is that which is called Sitha Rassoee, a table of Sitha (Seeta), wife of Ram; situated on an eminence to the south of the city. The emperor Aurangzeba demolished the fortress called Ramcote, and erected on the site of Mohammedan temple with a triple dome. According to others, it was

erected by Baber. There are to be seen fourteen columns of black stone, five spans in height, occupied the site of the fortress. Twelve of these columns now support the interior arcades of the mosque; the two other form part of the tomb of a certain Moor. They tell us that these columns are rather these remains of skillfully wrought columns, were brought from the isle of Lanca or Selendip (Ceylon) by Hanuman, King of the Monkeys. On the left is seen a square chest, raised five inches from the ground covered with time about 5 ells in length by not more than four in breadth. The Hindoos call it Bedi. The cradle; and the reason is, that there formety stood here the house in which Beshan (Vishnoo) was born in the form of Ram, and were also, they say, is three brothers were born. Afterwards, Aurangzebe or, according to others, Baber caused place to be destroyed, in order to deprive the heathen of the opportunity of practicing there their superstitions. Nevertheless, they still pay superstitious reverence to both these places, namely, to that on which the Natal dwelling Ram stood, by going three times around it, prostrate on the earth. The two places are surrounded with a low wall adorned with battlements. Not far from this is a place where they dig up grains of black rice changed into little stones, which are affirmed to have been hidden under ground ever since the time of Rama. On the 24th of the month of Tshet (Choitru), a large concourse of people celebrate here the birth day of Ram, so famous throughout India.".......(Ibid. 313-34) egUFk j?kqojnkl }kjk izLrqr vihy esa LFky fujh{k.k djus ds i'pkr rRdkyhu ftyk tt

"I visited the land of dispute yesterday, in the presence of all parties. I found that the Masjid built by the Emperor Babar stands on the border on the town Ajudhia- that is to say the west and south it is clean of inhabitations. It is most unfortunate that a Masjid should have been built on the land spically held sacred by the Hindus, but as the event occurred 356 years ago it is too late now to remedy the grievance. All that can be done is to maintain the parties in status quo. In such a case as the present one any (Sic) would cause more harm and damage (Sic) of order than benefit. The entrance to the enclosure is under a gateway which bears the superscription "Allah" immediately on the left as the platform or Chabootra of masonry occupied by the Hindus. On this is a small superstructure of wood in the form of a tent. This 'Chabootra' is said to indicate the birthplace of Ram Chandra. Infront of the gateway in the entry to masonry Platform of the Musjid, a wall pierced (illegible) and therewith railing divides the platform of the Musjid from the enclosure in which stands the 'Chabootra'." iqjkrRo foHkkx }kjk U;k;ky; ds le{k viuk Li"V vfHker O;Dr djrs gq, mR[kuu ls

The Hon'ble High Court, in order to get sufficient archeologist evidence on the issue involved "whether there was any temple/structure which was demolished and mosque was constructed on the dispute site" as stated on page 1 and further on p. 5 of their order dated 05 March 2003, had given directions to the Archaeological Survey of India to excavation at the disputed site where the GPR survey has suggested evidence of anomalies which could be

structure, pillars, foundation walls, slab flooring etc. which could be confirmed by excavation. Now, viewing to totality and taking into account the archaeological evidence of a massive structure just below the disputed structure and evidence of continuity in structural phases from the tenth century onwards upto the construction of the disputed structure alongwith the yield of stone and decorated bricks as well as mutilated sculpture of divine couple and carved architectural members including foliage patterns, amalaka, kapotapali doorjamb with semi-circular pilaster, broken octagonal shaft of black schist pillar, lotus motif, circular shrine having pranala (water chute) in the north, fifty pillar bases in association of the huge structure, are indicative of remains which are distinctive features found associated with the temples of north India. yxHkx 3 o"kZ rd i{kksa dh cgl lquus ds ckn fnuakd 30 flrEcj] 2010 dks okn dks vafre
