註釋"In a unanimous verdict on 9 November 2019, the Supreme Court cleared the way for the construction of a Ram temple at the disputed site in Ayodhya. The Babri Masjid-Ram Janmabhoomi conflict has been a critical crack in the national fabric of our country, carefully nurtured and developed after the trauma of Partition. For decades, successive governments as well as activist groups of concerned citizens hoped to find an amicable solution to the dispute. The ebb and flow of sentiment responded to political fervour, with the latter often prompted by the former. Efforts to reach a negotiated reconciliation continued even as the Supreme Court prepared to hear the case of the century. Ultimately, the highest court of the land settled down to decide what many legal scholars will continue to describe as a hard case. The final judgment carefully balanced principles of law with the inevitable question of equity to bring a sense of closure to a dispute that threatened to rupture India's unique social unity. Through this book, Salman Khurshid explores the landmark judgment and how it offers a great opportunity for the reaffirmation of India as a secular society"--Jacket flap.
