Spiritual guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, who was part of the Supreme Court-appointed
mediation panel in the Ayodhya dispute case, has welcomed the judgment on Saturday
and said the court has done justice to both Hindus and Muslims.

Supreme Court on Saturday delivered a landmark judgment in the Ayodhya land dispute
case that has been pending for over 70 years. The five-judge Supreme Court bench
ruled in favour of building a Ram Mandir at the disputed site where the Babri
Masjid was demolished in 1992.

The court has asked the Centre to provide an alternate land of 5 acres to the Sunni
Waqf Board to build a mosque.

"The court has done justice to both the communities and the historic verdict must
be welcomed by all sections of the society," said Sri Sri Ravi Shankar while
addressing the media soon after the verdict came out.

He added, "With this, India will set an example of unity in diversity for the
world. This is right for everyone and I'm confident that everyone will welcome the
verdict."

Praising the Supreme Court for delivering a favourable verdict, Sri Sri Ravi
Shankar said, "This is a very sensitive case and the Supreme Court has dealt with
it with utmost sensitivity and sensibly."

"It has been done in a very peaceful manner after a prolonged struggle for decades.
The country will now look forward to progress," said the Art of Living founder.

He however refused to comment if the Supreme Court considered the mediation panel's
report that it submitted before the court on the last day of the hearings on
October 16.
