The Liberhan Commission of inquiry report will be tabled in Parliament in the current winter session, union Home Minister P Chidambaram said in New Delhi on Monday, while refusing to comment on the contents that appeared in a media report.
The commission that probed the 1992 Babri Masjid demolition submitted its report on Jun 30, and "we are required to table it along with the action taken report within six months", Chidambaram said in the Lok Sabha.
"We shall table it during the (current) winter session" of Parliament.
"It is unfortunate that a newspaper has published what purports to be the contents of the report," the home minister said.
"There's only one copy in safe custody and I can assure the House that none from the Ministry of Home Affairs has spoken to anyone."
A report in the Indian Express on Monday said the commission has indicted former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee as well as senior Bharatiya Janata Party leaders LK Advani and Murli Manohar Joshi for their role in the demolition.
