Hindi Urdu India Ayodhya Faizabad Uttar Pradesh Hindus Rama Babri Mosque

The Ayodhya dispute is a political, historical, and religious debate in India centered around a plot of land in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh. Hindus regard the site as the birthplace of Rama while Muslims built the Babri Mosque there in the 16th century. In 1992, Hindu activists destroyed the mosque, sparking riots. A subsequent court case ruled in 2010 that the land should be divided among Hindu, Muslim, and Nirmohi Akhara groups as 1/3 each, agreeing a Hindu temple previously occupied the site before the mosque.

The Ayodhya dispute (Hindi: 'Aydhy Vivd' , Urdu: ' Masala-

Aydhy' ) is a political, historical and socio-religious debate in India, centred on a plot of land in
the city of Ayodhya, located in Faizabad district, Uttar Pradesh. The main issues revolve around
access to a site traditionally regarded among Hindus to be the birthplace of the Hindu
deity Rama, the history and location of the Babri Mosqueat the site, and whether a previous
Hindu temple was demolished or modified to create the mosque.
The Babri Mosque was destroyed by hardline Hindu activists during a political rally which turned
into a riot on 6 December 1992. A subsequent land title case was lodged in the Allahabad High
Court, the verdict of which was pronounced on 30 September 2010. In the landmark hearing, the
three judges of The Allahabad High Court ruled that the 2.77 acres (1.12 ha) of Ayodhya land be
divided into 3 parts, with 1/3 going to theRam Lalla or Infant Rama represented by the Hindu
Maha Sabha for the construction of the Ram temple, 1/3 going to the Islamic Sunni Waqf
Board and the remaining 1/3 going to a Hindu religious denomination Nirmohi Akhara. While the
three-judge bench was not unanimous that the disputed structure was constructed after
demolition of a temple, it did agree that a temple or a temple structure predated the mosque at
the same site.[1] The excavations by the Archaeological Survey of India were heavily used as
evidence by the court that the predating structure was a massive Hindu religious building
