A five-member Supreme Court bench headed by Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi will deliver its verdict in the Ayodhya temple-mosque title suit. The verdict, to be delivered, will hope to bring about a resolution to a decades-old dispute that even resulted in the demolition of the Babri mosque in 1992 by right-wing activists.
