April 19, 2017 15:54

Following the verdict of the Supreme Court on Babri Masjid demolition, the Bharatiya Janata Party on Wednesday said it will analyze the decision in details.

"The Supreme Court has given the verdict. The party would study the verdict in detail," BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra said.

Meanwhile, Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut said Ram Mandir is the responsibility of the Centre demanding the withdrawal of chargesheets filed.

"We have always bowed our heads in front of every judicial decision. The implementation of construction of Ram Mandir was taken up under the leadership of L.K. Advani. Every BJP leader was up for it,

The apex court has directed the sessions judge in Lucknow to conduct the trial in the Babri demolition case on a daily basis and that the judge will not be transferred. It also ruled out a fresh trial in the case.

The top court has also ordered the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to ensure that witnesses are produced in court everyday so that there is no delay in the Babri demolition case trial. The trial will have to be completed in two years.

However, the apex court has clarified that Kalyan Singh, being Governor of Rajasthan, will not be tried due to constitutional immunity unless he ceases to be in that post. In effect, his trial will begin after his term as governor ends.

Singh was the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh when the demolition took place.

Others who will face criminal conspiracy charges are Vinay Katiyar, Sadhvi Ritambara, Satish Pradhan, Champat Rai Bansal. The late Giriraj Kishore is also among the names in the original chargesheet.
