Earliest resolution of Ayodhya dispute will benefit Hindus and Muslims: Minorities Commission chief
Jan-10-2019

National Commission for Minorities chairperson Syed Ghayorul Hasan Rizvi said that no hindrance should be created in the hearing of the Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid land title dispute in the Supreme Court, saying the earliest resolution of it will benefit both Hindus and Muslims.

Rizvi also thanked the Modi government for the 10-per cent reservation in employment and education to the economically weaker sections, claiming it will be more beneficial for the minorities most of whom are financially poor, he added. The Supreme Court has decided to constitute a fresh five-judge Constitution bench to hear the politically sensitive Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid land title dispute on January 29 after a judge, Justice U U Lalit, recused himself. 

Rizvi termed Parliament's approval to the bill for 10 per cent reservation to general category poor, as a historic development. Rizvi opined that ‘It is a historic thing as the economically weaker among Muslims will be provided reservation for the first time in the history. We thank the government for the bill which was passed by Rajya Sabha yesterday as it will go a long way in benefitting economically weaker sections of the minorities.’
