The Supreme Court on Wednesday appeared resolute in taking the mediation route to explore possibility of a compromise between Hindu and Muslim parties warring for ownership of the disputed Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid land in Ayodhya as it asked parties to suggest names of mediators.
With Hindu parties, except Nirmohi Akhara, opposing mediation and Muslim parties expressing willingness, a bench of CJI Ranjan Gogoi and Justices S A Bobde, D Y Chandrachud, Ashok Bhushan and S Abdul Nazeer reserved its verdict on desirability of mediation for the dispute and told the parties, “Give names of mediators by today. We will pass orders shortly.”
