Chief Justice DY Chandrachud
The historic decision regarding Ayodhya and Babri Masjid was taken on November 9, 2019. Chief Justice DY Chandrachud also took part in the decision. The Chief Justice recently said that when he was unable to decide the case, he prayed to God to show him the way.
Amid the ongoing controversy over Ram Temple and Babri Masjid, I have prayed to God for resolution of the case, the Chief Justice said on Sunday. He also said that if you have faith, God will show you the way.
“I sit in the presence of God”
Justice DY Chandrachud addressed people in Kankhesar, Maharashtra on Sunday. “We often come across situations where we are unable to reach any solution and make a decision,” he said. Something similar happened during Ayodhya (Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid dispute). This case has been before me for three months, he said. Explaining how he took a decision in the case, the CJI said, I sat before God and told him that you have to find a solution to this case.
CJI has reached Rama temple
The chief justice said, believe me, if you believe in God, God will always find a way. On November 9, 2019, a five-judge bench of the Supreme Court headed by the then Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi delivered a historic judgment on Ayodhya. CJI Ranjan Gogoi paved the way for the construction of Ram temple. It has also been decided to provide only 5 acres of land in Ayodhya for the mosque. DY Chandrachud was also included in the five-judge bench. CJI DY Chandrachud also went to Ram temple for darshan in July after its completion.
