New Delhi: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) leader Indresh Kumar said that the Supreme Court had solved the decades-old Ramjanmbhoomi-Babri Masjid land dispute case in a "beautiful way".
"This is a historic judgement. A problem has been solved in a beautiful way," said Kumar, who is the convener of Rashtriya Muslim Manch (RMM).
The RSS leader thanked the Centre for appealing to people to keep and maintain harmony.
"I thank the government of India for appealing to the people to keep calm. RMM also held hundreds of meetings asking Muslims to accept the verdict," he said.
In its landmark judgement, the Supreme Court earlier on Saturday ruled that the 2.77-acre disputed land be given to Hindu parties, paving the way construction of Ram Temple in Ayodhya.
It also directed the Centre to give five acres of suitable land to the Sunni Waqf Board and at the same time make necessary arrangements for the construction of the temple by forming a trust for this.
The Supreme Court's judgement in the Ayodhya case reportedly shaped the political and social landscape of India.
The apex court in a unanimous verdict on Saturday cleared the way for the construction of a Ram Temple at the disputed site at Ayodhya, and directed the Centre to allot a 5-acre plot to the Sunni Waqf Board for building a mosque.
In one of the most important and most anticipated judgements in India's history, a 5-judge Constitution bench headed by Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi put an end to the more than a century old dispute that has torn the social fabric of the nation.
The Union home ministry kept a "constant and engaging" vigil across the country with central paramilitary forces, intelligence agencies and state police forces.
An overwhelming presence of men and women in 'khaki' on ground, intensive patrolling and monitoring of various social media platforms were the drill followed by state police forces to check any inflammatory or mischievous act in the wake of the Supreme Court verdict that cleared the way for the creation of a Ram temple in Ayodhya.
