The verdict has annulled respect for history and seeks to replace history with religious faith. True reconciliation can only come when there is confidence that the law in this country bases itself not just on faith and belief, but on evidence. — Romila https://www.thehindu.com/opinion/op-ed/The-verdict-on-Ayodhya-a-historians-perspective/article15523346.ece

I see #Ayodhya beyond Hindu-Muslim binary. In last couple of decades Indian politics has been badly hit by demographic insecurity of Hindi speaking Hindu upper caste male. I see this judgment as an extension to that.
If you carefully examine the outcome of Ayodhya campaign among many things it has also reduced the stakes of non Hindi speaking states in national politics.
