Babri panel to move SC over Babri mosque debris

The All-India Babri Masjid Action Committee would move the Supreme Court seeking rubble of the demolished Babri mosque in Ayodhya, said AIBMAC convener Zafaryab Jilani here on Thursday.

The matter would also be discussed with the All-India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB), he added

The AIBMAC is also preparing to file a curative petition in the Supreme Court after its review petition was dismissed earlier this month.

"We could have raised the rubble issue during the review petition's hearing, but the plea was dismissed. According to the shariat, a mosque's debris can't be used in any other construction. The apex court has not given any direction on the mosque's debris," he said.

Jilani said the Supreme Court stated that the demolition of the mosque was illegal and unlawful. "The pillars, stones and other wreckage of the demolished mosque should be handed over to Muslims. We will soon file a petition for this," he said.
