Don’t file review petition against SC verdict on Ayodhya: Sunni Waqf Board

New Delhi, November 26 :

The Sunni Waqf Board will not file a review petition against the Supreme Court verdict on the Ayodhya land dispute case.

After the meeting of its members in Lucknow, the president of the Board, Zufar Farooqi reiterated that as announced earlier, it will not go for a review of the case.

The Board said it would wait for the government to first decide on the 5-acre land to be given for construction of a mosque, as directed by the Supreme Court.

Farooqi said that seven of the eight members of the Board were yet to decide whether to accept the land.

He said the members feel that they need more time to decide on the matter and also ensure that it is appropriate as per the Shariat.
