Accordingly the supreme court on thursday dismissed a batch of petitions seeking review of its november 9 ayodhya land dispute case verdict which cleared the way for construction of a ram temple at the disputed site. Meanwhile the top court, which took a total of 19 review pleas for consideration in-chamber, rejected them after finding no ground to entertain them. A five judge bench headed by Chief Justice S A Bobde said while rejecting 10 out of 19 pleas filed by original litigants to the title dispute "Applications for listing of review petitions in open court are dismissed. We have carefully gone through the review petitions and the connected papers filed therewith. We do not find any ground, whatsoever, to entertain the same. The review petitions are, accordingly, dismissed".
Furthermore the apex court, which also considered the nine petitions filed by "third parties" who were not part of the original litigation, denied them permission to file review petition in the matter. The bench said "Applications for permission to file review petitions are dismissed. In view of the denial of permission to file review petitions, applications for listing of review petitions in open court as well as review petitions are rejected," also comprising Justices D Y Chandrachud, ashok Bhushan, S A Nazeer and sanjeev Khanna, while dismissing the pleas filed by "third parties".
Moreover as per report among the 10 original litigants, whose review petitions were dismissed, eight were filed by the Muslim parties which includes those supported by the All india Muslim Personal Law Board.
