The Uttar Pradesh cabinet on Wednesday cleared five acres of land to Sunni Central Waqf board for the construction of a mosque in Ayodhya.
Speaking in the Lok Sabha on Wednesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, "We requested for the 5 acres of land for the Sunni Waqf Board to the UP Govt in Ayodhya. The UP Govt has given its approval."
"This morning, in a meeting, major decisions have been taken in line with the judgment of the SC," the Prime Minister added.
On November 9 last year, the Supreme Court in a historic judgment gave the Ramjanmabhoomi to Hindus for the construction of temple rejecting the claims of the Muslims.
