Welcoming the suggestion of the Supreme Court to settle the long-festering Ram Mandir/Babri Masjid dispute through out- of- court dialogue involving the contending parties, the seers of Akhara Parishad, the apex body of the religious fraternity, said they might convene a meeting of the Dharmacharyas (religious gurus) in Ayodhya soon to discuss the matter, post the apex court’s suggestion, threadbare . They said they are ready to take the initiative to settle the acerbic stalemate amicably through negotiation. They further said that they would invite the representatives of Babri Masjid Action Committee to the meetings they might convene in the coming days. Besides, the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh Yogi Adityanath might be invited too, they said.
Speaking to The Pioneer on Wednesday, the president of the Parishad, Mahant Narendra Giri said, “We have already started contacting the religious leaders for a meeting which would be called taking into account their availability. The date has not been fixed yet. However, we are now in the process of fixing it.”
Giri also said that a comprehensive proposal encompassing the sentiments of all the parties involved would be firmed up soon.
The national spokesperson of the Parishad Mahant Mohan Das said that the proposal would seek to take all on board to thrash out a solution that would make all happy.
