Just because there was no violent Muslim outburst of anger or displeasure after the September 30 Allahabad High Court verdict on the land of Babri Masjid in Ayodhya did not mean that Muslims accepted the court verdict as justified one.
When mythology and "faith" of the majority took precedence over legal propriety and hard evidence, then how much conviction can the judgement carry? And, why give one-third land to the Waqf Board as consolation prize, if the Hindu claims of Ram being born there and a temple being demolished by Muslims at the site were correct?
Over the years Muslims have kept asserting that they would definitely abide by the court verdict. But Hindu groups kept saying that either the court decided in favour of Ram Janmasthan or the groups would assert that a court can't decide on matters of faith. No wonder the judges have kept in mind the intransigent attitude of the saffron brigade in regard to Ayodhya issue while delivering their verdict.
