Welcome Supreme Court verdict on Ram-Janmbhoomi in Ayodhya 

Chief Justice of India CJI should be complimented for taking all necessary precautions before pronouncing much-awaited and sensitive verdict on Ram-Janmbhoomi when in an unprecedented manner, CJI held a meeting in his chamber with concerned senior officers of UP responsible for ensuring law and order in the state. Furthermore, verdict was delivered on Saturday rather than normal working day between Monday and Friday, thus ensuring that Saturday and Sunday may provide a cool-down period before coming Monday.

Now that five-member Supreme Court has through its well-analyzed unanimous decided on the most sensitive issue paving way for construction of a grand temple at Ram Janmbhoomi in Ayodhya under a government-managed trust, Indian Muslim community should respect religious sentiments of Hindus by extending support for construction of the temple at birth-place of Lord Ram at Ayodhya. Even though Apex Court declined Shia-community to be a party in the case, yet their suggestion for alternate land of five-acres for construction of a grand mosque at alternate place in Ayodhya was accepted by the court.

It will be even more welcome gesture if offer comes for sue-motto shifting mosques from Vishwanath Temple in Kashi and Krishna-Janmbhoomi in Mathura. Any such gesture will make India a glorious example of communal harmony. Grand mosques then can be made with co-operation of government and Hindu-organizations elsewhere at Kashi and Mathura also.
