Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, spiritual guru and founder of the Art of Living Foundation recently stated that Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath was supportive of his initiative that of mediation in the Ram janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid dispute.
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar said, “Yes, he is supportive. How could he not be? He wants peace and harmony. He has supported my stance.”
The case that involves 2.77 acres of disputed land is being led by the Supreme Court for which the spiritual leader said that the Supreme Court order would not resolve the issue. He asserted, “If court rules against a temple, there will be bloodshed. Do you think the Hindu majority will allow it? They will garner resentment towards the Muslim community.”'
He, however, added, “If court rules in favour of a temple, Muslims will feel defeated. They may lose faith in the judiciary and there are chances of resorting to extremism. Exchange is the only solution. Muslims will get 5 acres of land in return, elsewhere in Ayodhya.”
