The Ayodhya dispute case reached the Supreme Court in 2010, challenging the Allahabad High Court verdict in the Babri Masjid-Ram Janmabhoomi matter. Today is when the SC verdict on the Ayodhya case will be announced. The Supreme Court had reserved its verdict on October 16 after a day-to-day hearing for 40 days.

The Allahabad High Court had heard four civil suits and ordered the division of the 2.77-acre land in the Babri Masjid-Ram Janmabhoomi compound in Ayodhya into three equal parts among three parties - Ram Lalla, the Sunni Waqf Board and the Nirmohi Akhara.

This verdict satisfied none of the parties and the matter reached the Supreme Court in 2010. Altogether 14 appeals were filed in the Supreme Court against the 2010 Allahabad High Court judgment.

This series of litigation had its origin in 1950, when a devotee of Lord Ram, Gopal Singh Visharad moved the Faizabad district court claiming the right to worship of Hindus at the disputed site and enforcement of the same. Four more lawsuits were filed subsequently.

In 1950 itself, another devotee, the Paramahansa Ramachandra Das filed a lawsuit for the continuation of worship and keeping of the idols under the central dome of the Babri Masjid that stood in Ayodhya till December 6, 1992. This petition was later withdrawn.

The Nirmohi Akhara, one of the main petitioners in the Ayodhya dispute case, moved the trial court in 1959. It sought management and 'she baits' (devotee) rights over the 2.77-acre land.

Two years later came in the lawsuit of the Uttar Pradesh Sunni Central Wakf Board. The Board, representing the Muslim side, claimed title right over the disputed land - as a matter of inheritance from Babar, the Mughal emperor.

The last among the original petitioners was Ram Lalla Virajman, the presiding deity, who filed a lawsuit through next friend, and the Janmbhoomi (the birthplace). Former Allahabad High Court judge Deoki Nandan Agrawal staked claim as the next friend of the deity.

This lawsuit was filed in 1989 seeking title right over the entire compound. The ground of its title claim was that the Janmabhoomi has the character of the deity and is a 'Juristic entity'.

Following the demolition of Babri Masjid in 1992, all the lawsuits were transferred to the Allahabad High Court for adjudication. Nearly 18 years later, the Allahabad High Court delivered its verdict. And, nine years after, the judgment was challenged in the Supreme Court, the litigation reached its culmination.
