Lucknow:
Mohammed Hashim Ansari, 90, the oldest litigant in the Ayodhya
case, Tuesday said the Supreme Court's decision to lift stay on
the Allahabad High Court verdict has brought "a great sense of
relief for Muslims and Hindus across the country".
"I welcome the Supreme Court's decision... In fact, the entire
country would be happy with the decision... It would provide a
great sense of relief to Hindus and Muslims of the country who
have been waiting for the Ayodhya verdict for the last several
decades," Ansari told IANS on telephone from Ayodhya, some 150 km
from Lucknow.
"The decision by the Supreme Court will definitely help in ending
the uncertainty over the issue... It's my appeal to members of
both the communities that they should make every effort to ensure
Hindu-Muslim unity and peace should not get affected in view of
the judgement," he added.
The Supreme Court Tuesday dismissed a petition seeking deferment
of the Allahabad High Court verdict on the Babri
Masjid-Ramjanmabhoomi title suit case at least until the Oct 3-14
Commonwealth Games are over.
The petition was filed by former bureaucrat Ramesh Chandra
Tripathi.
"We want the dispute should be resolved as early as possible, so
that it could no longer become a political issue," said Ansari.

Picture of the Day |

Due to the threats of riot and
terror attacks, the festive season in India
nowadays results in sleepless nights for the security
personnel.
Against this backdrop, the show of communal harmony in Malegaon by Ajantha Mandal cannot be more timely. The Mandal
in a large hoarding portrays the real picture of the Muslim
dominated textile town in North Maharashtra. It shows,
Malegaon is where Azan in a Masjid and Shunkh
in a Mandir go simultaneously. To further make its point,
the Mandal plays communal harmony songs on a cassette-player
in its full sound.
