New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Wednesday dismissed all the thirty two interim petitions for intervention of the parties in sensitive Ram Mandir-Babri Masjid land dispute case.
The special bench of Chief Justice Dipak Misra and Justices Ashok Bhushan and SA Nazeer accepted the dispute that in this case only the basic original parties will be allowed to plead and the demands of unrelated persons to apply for intervention because the parties will be rejected. The Supreme Court dismissed the petition of BJP leader Subramanian Swamy, who is demanding intervention in the ongoing matter.
However, the court had ordered Swamy to settle the writ petition in which he had sought to implement his fundamental right to worship at Ram temple at the disputed site in Ayodhya. “I had filed a writ petition and said that I have the fundamental right to worship and it is better than the right to property. Swamy said.
The Special Court of the Supreme Court has seized 14 appeals filed against the High Court verdict in four civil suits. A three-judge bench of Allahabad High Court had ruled in 2010 in a 2: 1 majority decision that the land would be divided equally among the three parties – Sunni Waqf Board, Nirmohi Akhara and Ram Lalla.
