There has to be a solution otherwise we’ll go on fighting,” Shah said in an interactive session organised by the Indian Muslims for Peace on Thursday. He said that he strongly supported an out-of-court settlement. “The Supreme Court should give a clear verdict and it should not be ‘Panchayati’ at all. Even if the court gives judgement in favour of Muslims, will it be possible to build a mosque there? It is impossible,” he said. Several other prominent personalities were also present at the event including Padma Shri Mansoor Hasan. The Supreme Court is hearing the Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid land dispute on a daily basis and Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi has urged the parties in the matter to conclude the arguments by 18 October.
