Chairman Zafar Ahmad Farooqui of Uttar Pradesh Sunni Central Waqf Board, one of the main litigants in the Ram Janmbhoomi-Babri Masjid case on Saturday welcomed the Supreme Court verdict and said it has no plans to challenge it.
"We welcome the Supreme Court verdict in the case. The Board has no plans to challenge it," Farooqui told PTI.
"As of now, the verdict is being studied thoroughly after which the Board will issue a detailed statement," he said.
"If any lawyer or any other person says that the decision will be challenged by the Board, it should not be taken as correct," Farooqui stressed.
In his initial reaction soon after the judgement, the Board's counsel Zafaryab Jilani had said in Delhi, "The Ayodhya verdict has a lot of contradictions. We will seek a review as we are not satisfied with the verdict."
