Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday welcomed the Supreme Court verdict in the Babri Masjid land case, saying the judgement ended the decades-old dispute and appealed for peace and harmony.

The Supreme Court on Saturday cleared the way for the construction of a Ram Temple at the disputed site at Ayodhya, and directed the Centre to allot a five-acre plot to the Sunni Waqf Board for building a mosque.

“The five judge bench of Supreme Court after hearing arguments of all parties gave its verdict. We welcome the SC judgement. The SC gave its verdict on decades old dispute. The dispute of many years ended today. I appeal to all maintain peace and harmony,” Kejriwal tweeted after the court order.
