Sagardighi/New Delhi: The Sunni Wakf Board has filed an affidavit to the Supreme Court on the Ayodhya dispute, saying the matter cannot be sorted out through reconciliation.
A three-judge bench headed by Chief Justice of India SH Kapadia, Justice Aftab Alam and Justice KS Radhakrishnan will hear a petition on Tuesday whether to defer the verdict by the Lucknow bench of Allahabad High Court in the title suit case.
Meanwhile, Union Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee said on Monday that contesting parties in the Ayodhya title suit have to resolve the issue through discussions or accept the court verdict.
"The two contesting parties who filed the Ayodhya title suit have to resolve the matter among themselves through discussions. If it was not possible, then the court verdict has to be accepted," Mukherjee told reporters on the sidelines of a function in Sagardighi when asked about the Centre's stand on the 60-year-old dispute.
The Supreme Court had on Thursday, stayed for a week the High Court verdict following the petition moved by Ramesh Chand Tripathi seeking deferment of the verdict to explore the possibility of an out-of-court settlement in the matter.
The interim stay order on the verdict by the High Court was passed by the two-judge bench of Justice RV Raveendran and Justice HL Gokhale.
