An effort for deferring the judgement in the 60-year-old title suit in the Ramjanambhoomi – Babri Masjid dispute was on Friday rebuffed by the Lucknow Bench of Allahabad High Court, which will now pronounce its verdict on the 24th of this month. A three-judge Special Bench of the Court rejected a petition filed by Ramesh Chandra Tripathi for deferring the judgement for working out an out-of-court amicable settlement of the issue saying there was no merit in the application. The Special Bench also decided to impose a heavy fine, which would be announced later. The judges asked the parties whether they were interested in going for any discussion for a compromise and none of them showed interest. Following this, the court rejected the petition for deferring the judgement.Earlier, the Centre appealed to all sections of society to maintain peace and order after the verdict by the Allahabad High Court on the Ram Janam Bhoomi-Babri Masjid case.
