Hindu Mahasabha files caveat in SC
The general secretary of the organisation, Indira Tiwari, has said that an appeal against September 30 order of the high court is also likely to be filed in the apex court.
The Mahasabha has filed the caveat through its national president Swami Chakrapani. The general secretary of the organisation, Indira Tiwari, has said that an appeal against September 30 order of the high court is also likely to be filed in the apex court. She said the organisation is not in favour of any compromise on the issue and wants a legal solution to the whole dispute.
“We want only legal solution. We are against any type of compromise as we are in favour of constructing a grand Ram temple in Ayodhya,” she said.
She further said the Hindu Mahasabha would like to achieve its objective through the cooperation of all those who were party to the suit in the high court.
The high court had ordered for the three-fold division of 2.77 acre disputed land in Ayodhya among the Hindus, Muslims and Normohi Akhara with the allotment of the present make shift Ram temple to the Hindus. The Central Sunni Wakf Board, which was one of the parties in the title suit case in the high court, has decided to appeal against Sept 30 verdict in the Supreme Court.
Uttar Pradesh unit president of the Mahasabha Kamlesh Tewari has confirmed that the Mahasabha filed the caveat in the apex court. “This has been done in order to stress our seriousness towards our resolve to move the apex court against the Allahabad High Court verdict in the Ayodhya title suits,” said Tewary.
This has been done to ensure that the Mahasabha's viewpoint is heard in case some other party reaches the court on the issue, he said. The Mahasabha state president said that it was still awaiting the certified copies of the high court orders and only after getting that the organisation would be moving an application in the apex court, challenging the verdict sometime between October 20 and 25. Terming the moves towards resolving the issue through reconciliation as a “drama,” Tewari said that the Mahasabha has neither approached any of the Hindu litigants in the case nor has it been approached by any of them.
The high court bench comprising Justices Sudhir Agarwal, SU Khan and DV Verma had passed the order in Ayodhya title suit case. Justice Agarwal and Justice Khan in their separate orders had said for the division of the land in three parts. However, Justice Sharma in his minority dissenting order had said that the entire disputed site belonged to the Hindus as it was the birth place of lord Ram.
