The Supreme Court today deferred the hearing in the Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid title dispute case to 10 January. The matter was listed before a bench comprising Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi and Justice SK Kaul.
The apex court, on 29 October, had fixed the matter in the first week of January before an appropriate bench, which is to decide the schedule of hearing.
Various Hindu organisations have been demanding an ordinance on early construction of Ram temple at the disputed site.
It may be recalled that Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday suggested any decision on an ordinance on Ram temple in Ayodhya can happen only after the completion of the judicial process.
Earlier, in an interview to ANI this week, PM Narendra Modi had said that the government will consider bringing the ordinance on Ram temple construction only after the apex court gives the judgment in the case. The PM also blamed the Congress for stalling the hearing through their lawyers
