New Delhi: The five-Judge Constitution Bench of the Supreme Court will sit in chambers today.
“Take notice that on Thursday, October 17, 2019, the Chief Justice, SA Bobde, DY Chandrachud, Ashok Bhushan and S Abdul Nazeer will sit in chambers,” read a notice.
The Supreme Court on Wednesday reserved its verdict on a batch of petitions in connection with the Ram Mandir-Babri Masjid land dispute case.
The judgement is expected to pronounce between November 4-17, before the CJI retires on November 17.
The proceedings in the case ended on Thursday after 40 days hearing ever in the history of the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court was hearing a batch of petitions challenging September 30, 2010, Allahabad High Court judgement trifurcating the 2.77 acres of the disputed land at Ayodhya into three equal parts to Ram Lalla, Sunni Waqf Board and Nirmohi Akhara. But these three parties moved the apex court challenging the Allahabad High Court’s verdict, seeking a modification of the High Court judgement.
