Ahead of the Supreme Court verdict on the Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid land dispute case, a group of leaders from the Muslim community in Benglauru met Home Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Wednesday. The delegation earlier met city Police Commissioner Bhaskar Rao, and said they would accept the verdict and ensure that peace is maintained.

The delegation was represented by heads of various mosques and community leaders across the State. They have decided not to participate in debates conducted by news channels. “We have requested members of our community not to put up any message on social media and refrain from participating in debates on news channels as it can escalate a tense situation,” said Mahammed Maqsood Imran Rashadi, Imam of Jamia Mosque.
