Babri case: Yogi meeets Advani, MM Joshi, Uma ahead of hearing

May 30, 2017 11:13

UP CM Yogi Adityanath reaches the VVIP guest house in Lucknow where he met LK Advani and MM Joshi. The two leaders and Uma Bharti, who are accused of criminal conspiracy, are set to appear in court where the framing of charges will take place in the Babri Masjid demolition case.

The Supreme Court allowed the CBI to revive the conspiracy charges levelled against the leaders in 1992, essentially turning back the clock. The apex court has clubbed two cases, the one fought in Raebareli court with the other case filed in a Lucknow trial court (minus the criminal conspiracy charges).

The apex court has issued a two-year deadline, starting sometime in the next four weeks, to the designated court, directing it to hold daily proceedings without any adjournment.
