Raam temple issue was raised for the first time 206 years ago, know the whole history

New Delhi, October 16, 2019, Wednesday

Today is the last day for hearing in Ayodhya matter. Count down on the Supreme Court verdict in this case has begun.

However, many do not know that the issue of the first Ram temple was raised 206 years ago during the British rule. In 1813, the first Hindu organizations claimed that in 1526 Babar demolished the Ram temple and built a Babri Masjid. The mosque was called by the name of Babar. At that time there was a clash between the Hindu Muslim Party.

Seeing the controversy escalating, in 1859 the English government built a wire fence on the site. For the first time in 1885, Mahant Raghubar Das sought permission to build a temple at this place in a court under British rule.

Violence erupted around the site in 1934 and for the first time a part of the mosque's disputed structure was demolished. The British Government then repaired it. However, after independence from 1949, he started worshiping Ramlala idol at the center of the structure. The Muslim party went to court.

In 1950, Gopal Singh Visharde sought permission to worship Ramlala in a local court. In 1959, the Nirmohi Akhada sued the court in 1961 for ownership of the disputed site, and in 1961 the Sunni Waqf Board claimed ownership of the site. Thus, the Ram temple issue took a heavy look.

In 1984 the Vishwa Hindu Parishad launched a campaign to break the lock of Babri Masjid and liberate Ram Janmabhoomi and build a temple. In 1986, local authorities allowed worship here and the locks were reopened. Disgruntled with this, the Muslim party formed the Babri Masjid Action Committee.

On December 6, 1992, riots broke out across the country after the caravans demolished the controversial structure. In the meantime a temporary Ram temple was also built.

The matter was heard in the Allahabad High Court in 2002. According to the court's order, the archeological department claimed after excavation at the controversial site that evidence was found from the evidence that the temple was being constructed.

The Supreme Court in 2011 challenged the High Court's decision to divide the disputed space equally between the three parties. The issue has been going on in the Supreme Court ever since. However, after hearing the matter, the Supreme Court had on August 6 ordered it to be heard.

Thus a war that has lasted more than 200 years is now at its final destination. The Supreme Court is now nearing a historic verdict on the matter.
