Dad's comment on #BabriVerdict

Judges kya 5th class maths padh ke aaye the judgement dene - "minus x minus equal to plus".

Two negatives se ek positive kaise ho gaya.

Unlike me he was convinced that verdict would be in favour of Masjid. He still is more optimistic than me.

This is a historic day for the Hindu Rashtra, a narrow political vision built on hate, false history, and the use of violence to force adherence to majoritarian norms.

So much discussion on #BirdSite about who the authors are of the Ayodhya judgment.

Font preferences and formatting preferences certainly contain a clue.

The lead judgment is likely authored (or atleast compiled-in-chief) by Justice Chandrachud.

The addendum is likely authored by Justice Ashok Bhushan

So three findings emerge:

1. That the 1949 installation of idols was illegal
2. That the 1992 demolition was illegal.
3. No evidence that Babri masjid was build by *demolishing* a temple.

Who is the wronged and who is the wrongdoer again?

#AYODHYAVERDICT

🔹️Forcible placing of idols was violation of law

🔸️Demolition of mosque was violation of law

🔹️No evidence that the temple under #BabriMasjid was a Hindu temple

🔸️But disputed land goes to Hindus, while Muslims to get alternate land
