Ram mandir consttruction will start very soon 2010
On September 30, 2010, Allahabad High Court, in its historic decision, ruled to divide the disputed land of Ayodhya into three parts.
The date had brought a new dawn in the history of Ramnagari, when Allahabad High Court, in its historic decision, had ordered to divide the disputed land into three parts. The court had ruled to give one share each to Ramlal, Nirmohi Akhara and Waff Board.
After this, Ram devotees were hopeful that through the judicial process, the dream of generations of building a grand Ram temple at the same place in Ayodhya could come true.
Mass movement started in the 80s
After independence, the Ram Mandir movement gained maximum momentum especially in the 80s. Mahant Avedyanath established Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Mukti Yagya Committee on 21 July 1984 for the construction of the temple. On 7 October 1984, a huge public meeting was held on the banks of Saryu river demanding opening of the locks installed in the temple.
After this, the second public meeting was held in Udupi on 31 October 1985. The last date for opening the lock here was fixed as 8 March 1986, on the day of Mahashivratri. During this time the noise of Mandal-Kamandal also started. Taking the legal route, a demand for opening the lock was made in the District Court on January 31, 1986.
On February 1, 1986, Justice Krishnamohan Pandey ordered to open the lock of Shri Ram Janam Mandir. After this the government got the lock opened. On 3rd February Mohd. Hashim Qureshi and Zafaryab Jilani appealed in Allahabad High Court which was rejected.
Then on 12 May 1986, Uttar Pradesh Sunni Waqf Board filed a petition. Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Trust was also formed under the umbrella of Vishwa Hindu Parishad. When BJP government came to power at the Centre, 67.77 acres of land was acquired. After this, the political trend changed in Uttar Pradesh and Kalyan Singh’s government came to power. Then 40 acres of land was given on lease to the Trust.
Echo of building a temple arose from the entire country
That historic year of 1992 also came when the echo of “Ram Lalla, we will come and build the temple there” echoed across India. A group of Ram devotees traveled to Ayodhya carrying bricks for the construction of the temple from all over the country. The disputed structure was demolished on 6 December 1992. On December 10, 1992, the Supreme Court ordered to maintain the status quo by keeping the 1950 court order for darshan-worship intact.
On January 7, 1993, the Central Government issued an ordinance and acquired the entire temple complex. In 2010, the Lucknow bench of Allahabad High Court, while giving its verdict in the case, ordered to divide the disputed land into three parts. Order was given to give one part to the sitting Ramlala party, the second part to Nirmohi Akhara and the third part to Sunni Waqf Board.
