Neither Nirmohi Akhara nor the Sunni Wakf Board can take benefit of the legal principal of adverse possession to stake claim over the disputed land in Ayodhya, counsel for Ram Lalla told the SC on Wednesday as the deity claimed ownership over the entire piece of land.

“Hindus have always asserted their right to worship at the birthplace and therefore it cannot be a case of adverse possession,” senior counsel CS Vaidyanathan, representing Ram Lalla, told a five-judge Bench.

On day nine of the hearing in the Ram Janambhoomi-Babri Masjid case, Vaidyanathan said if an ordinary temple was getting submerged due to construction of a dam, devotees can shift the idol to another place. “Ram Janambhoomi cannot be shifted to some other place,” he contended. — TNS
