Ayodhya case: Review petition filed against SC verdict
New Delhi/IBNS: The Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind on Monday filed a review petition against the Supreme Court verdict on the Ayodhya case.
Maulana Syed Ashhad Rashidi, a legal heir of original Ayodhya land dispute litigant, on Monday filed a review petition in the Supreme Court against its ruling in favour of the Ram temple at the disputed site, Hindustan Times reported.
This is the first review petition filed by the Muslim side on the verdict that was passed last month.
In a historic judgement to a politically-sensitive Ayodhya case which has been raging for almost 70 years, the Supreme Court recently paved way for the construction of Ram Temple in the disputed 2.77 acres of land in Uttar Pradesh's Ayodhya dismissing the Sunni Waqf Board's claim to the land.
The apex court also directed that a mosque be built over 5 acres in a prominent location.
The Board said it is not going to accept the alternative five-acre land.
