"Would Like To Thank Judiciary" For Ram Temple, Says PM Modi
Prime Minister Narendra Modi - shortly after completing the 'pran pratishtha' of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya - thanked the judiciary for "justice" dispensed five years, referring to the Supreme Court's controversial November 2019 decision to award the once-disputed site, on which the Babri Masjid, a 16th century mosque stood before being illegally demolished - to camps of Hindu petitioners. "Even after the Constitution came into existence, a legal battle was fought for decades (over) Lord Ram's existence. I would like to thank the judiciary that delivered justice and (allowed) Lord Ram's temple was built in a legal manner..." the Prime Minister said after the consecration ceremony.
