Earlier this week (22nd March) the date of hearing was shifted to 23rd March 2017 citing the excuse of non availability of Justice Rohinton Nariman.

Earlier this month the Supreme Court of India reportedly expressing its concern has asked to fast-track the trails and proceedings related to the Babri Masjid Demolition case, furthermore the court  has also suggested clubbing of Raebareli and Lucknow cases.

The sensitive issue has returned to the limelight after the BJP in the name of ‘Hindutva’ grabbed power in Uttar Pradesh with a brute majority, which may ignite already explosive situation as the  supporters of the party may propose a plan to build a Ram temple at the site, notes the media its report.

The mosque was demolished on December 6, 1992 by Hindutva outfit Vishva Hindu Parishad kar sevaks, sparking communal riots across the country that left more than 3,000 people dead.
