The VHP and its affiliate organisations will not organise any event or public meeting anywhere in Ayodhya, including Karsevakpuram. “After the Supreme Court unanimously gave the verdict in favour of Ram Mandir on November 9, 2019 , the chapter of Babri Masjid was closed for us,” said Sharad Sharma, regional spokesperson of VHP.

The VHP and its affiliate organisations will not organise any event or public meeting anywhere in Ayodhya, including Karsevakpuram.

“After the Supreme Court unanimously gave the verdict in favour of Ram Mandir on November 9, 2019 , the chapter of Babri Masjid was closed for us,” said Sharad Sharma, regional spokesperson of VHP, who operates from Karsevakpuram in Ayodhya.

“Now, December 6 has been incorporated in January 22 when Ram Lalla will be enthroned in the Ram Temple sanctum sanctorum,” added Sharma.

But locals in Ayodhya who wanted to light diyas in their homes (on Wednesday) could do so, asserted Sharma.

It may be pointed out that the VHP had stopped celebrating ‘Shaurya Diwas’ in Ayodhya on December 6 after the Supreme Court’s verdit in favour of Ram Temple.

However, the Muslim community will observe Yaum-e-Gam on Wednesday.
