WHAT THE COURT SAID

On the right to offer namaz

“We will direct the DM to ensure protection of the place without restricting Muslims from entering and offering namaz and other religious observances”

On maintaining status quo

“We have protected the spot where the Shivling was found. And we have clarified this will not restrict the rights of Muslims. We think this is a balance... let us leave it at that... This is an interim arrangement”
