PRESS RELEASE ______________ CPI(ML) WELCOMES SUPREME COURT VERDICT ON AYOHDYA New Delhi, 13.03.2002 The CPI(ML) welcomes the Supreme Court verdict prohibiting any kind of religious ceremony in any part of the land held by the Central Government at Ayodhya. It now falls on the Central Government to make sure that the Supreme Court verdict is not allowed to be violated on the ground. The General Secretary of the CPI(ML), Dipankar Bhattacharya, has said that it is instructive to note that the Vajpayee government which claims that construction of Ram temple at Ayodhya is not on its so-called national agenda had actually appealed to the Court to allow a 'symbolic puja' from 2-15 PM to 5-15 PM. The lie of the BJP has thus been completely exposed and if the non-BJP partners of NDA still continue to be part of the coalition they will do so only at their own peril. The Sangh Parivar has an ugly track record of telling lies to the nation and shelving the Constitution and Court orders in pursuit of its sinister sectarian agenda. While welcoming the Supreme Court's order, democratic and secular citizens of the country must therefore never slacken their vigil.
