The All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) Sunday said it will move court if the Centre brings an ordinance for construction of Ram temple in Ayodhya or the "triple talaq" bill is passed in the Rajya Sabha.

At the meeting of the working committee of the AIMPLB, the board also urged the Centre to ensure that no inflammatory statements are made regarding the Ayodhya issue and urged the Supreme Court to take cognizance of such remarks, secretary of the board Zafaryab Jilani said.

After the meeting, senior member of the board Qasim Rasul Iliyaas said, "The Centre has brought an ordinance on triple talaq. Its duration is of six months. If it is made into a law, then we will challenge this in the Supreme Court."
"This ordinance was prepared without any consultation with the Muslim society... we will urge the secular parties not to allow its passage in Parliament."
Iliyas also said, "In the Ayodhya issue, the final decision of the court will be acceptable to the board."
