"Chief Justice Chandrachud ji said that he had prayed to God for a solution to the Ayodhya issue. If he had prayed for some other issues, they would have also been resolved like a common man could get justice from the High Court and Supreme Court without money. Misuse of ED, CBI and IT would have stopped," he wrote on X.

"Very often we have cases (to adjudicate) but we don't arrive at a solution. Something similar happened during the Ayodhya (Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid dispute) which was in front of me for three months. I sat before the deity and told him he needed to find a solution," he said, reported PTI.
"Believe me, if you have faith, God will always find a way," he added.
A five-judge bench of the Supreme Court, headed by then Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi, settled the decades-old temple-mosque dispute in Ayodhya by paving the way for the construction of the Ram temple. The bench also ruled that a mosque would come up on an alternative five-acre plot in the city.
