Pak Minister condemns 'one-sided' Babri mosque verdict for 'favouring Hindus' | Following the announcement of Ayodhya verdict by the Allahabad High Court, Pakistan Minister for Religious
Affairs Hamid Saeed Kazmi has called it a political verdict, which is 'totally in favour of the Hindu community.' Speaking to Pakistan Television, Kazmi said
that Muslims in India had been deprived of their right, due to the one-sided decision
on the mosque issue, The News reported. "The court cited Babri Mosque as a birth
place of Ram and recommended a little piece of place for Muslims like a donation,"
he added. He noted that the decision to equally distribute the mosque land among
the Hindus and the Muslims was quite complicated, and would create problems for
the faithful in offering prayers. Calling upon the Indian Muslims to make more
efforts for their rights, Kazmi asked them to file an appeal against this decision
in the Supreme Court. "In Pakistan we have always raised voice against any injustice
with the minority communities while in India the state is not showing solidarity
with the Muslims," he said, urging people from all walks of life to raise their
voice against the unjust decision. According to the court's verdict, the land
has been divided between the Hindus and the Muslims (one-third for the Waqf
Board, a third for Ram Lalla Virajman, and a third for the Nirmohi Akhara). The
judgement says that the disputed site is the birthplace of Lord Ram and that the
portion below the central dome under which idols are placed be allotted to Hindus.
