In the history of India, there has been a number of landmark judgments from the highest court but only a few were as sensitive and complex as the Ayodhya verdict that was pronounced by the highest court on 9th November, 2019, settling once and for all what had been a prolonged dispute. This particular paper is not merely based on the final judgement but to also the premise building to that point. The paper begins with giving the introduction which gives a small yet very intriguing facts of case while also raising some questions on high court’s judgement made in the year of 2010, mentioning that the topic is sourced from a religious, historical and other aspects. The aim highlights the main focus of this particular paper and the methodology focuses on how the conclusion that was preferred arrived at. Then before moving on to the case, we will also dive into history of the great city of Ayodhya and the importance it has held for years in for India’s different faiths. By this we can say that history plays a key role in this entire dispute’s analysis. A lot for the historical side of affairs but the problem is that it’s not the only perspective as we then move to the religious aspects in this particular case in the sense, people already have a glance at the life as according to the sacred text related to main party in this case Shree Ram (Ram Lalla), what are the specialities and qualities that made Lord Ram so significant which makes him so revered among the masses. We also discuss few of the occasions related to Lord Ram that imprints its impact on almost every life. We then discuss the stakes at both sides that help us realise how much importance it holds to both sides involved (not parties) because there are numerous parties but only two sides when seen on wider scale. Finally, we move on to the jurisprudential aspect regarding this case where we discuss two approaches the historical approach and sociological approach and how there is no approach of mono-centric nature rather a mix of two before getting to the analysis and conclusion. Main focus of the analysis is on the impacts those decisions have in the judgement upon both parties as well as reasoning that is possible behind it, at last we conclude where does this judgement stand in terms of doing proper justice with to both the parties.
