The Supreme Court's order deferring the Ayodhya verdict title suit by the Allahabad High Court to September 28 has evoked mixed reaction from the litigants of the 60-year-old dispute.
The Allahabad High Court has rejected an application to implead goddess Radha Rani as a party in the Mathura Krishna Janmabhoomi-Shahi Idgah title dispute. The court ruled that puranic illustrations are considered hearsay evidence and the applicant failed to provide concrete evidence supporting the claim of joint ownership.
Hindu bodies except Nirmohi Akhara have opposed the suggestion of the apex court to refer the issue for mediation, while Muslim bodies have supported it.
The SC underlined that it has no control over what Mughal ruler Babar did.
