New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Thursday fixed July 25 as the date to begin day-to-day hearings in the Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid land dispute case if mediation fails.
While hearing a petition seeking early hearing in the case, the court, sought a progress report from the mediation panel by July 18. It added that in case mediation fails or is found unfeasible, it would begin hearing from July 25.
The Supreme Court in March had constituted a three-member committee chaired by former SC judge Fakkir Mohammed Ibrahim Kalifulla, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar and senior Madras High Court advocate Sriram Panchu.
On May 10, the court had given a deadline of August 15 to the mediation panel to find a reasonable solution to the dispute.
