The Bombay High Court on Tuesday said that expressing the view that the Babri Masjid in Ayodhya should not have been demolished does not amount to being “anti-national”, Bar and Bench reported. Justice Madhav Jamdar added that citizens are entitled to hold different opinions and quashed externment orders banning two members of the Social Democratic Party of India from entering Mumbai for a period of one year. The Babri Masjid was demolished on December 6, 1992, by Hindu extremists because they believed that it stood on the spot on which the deity Ram had been born. The cases related to protests against the Waqf Amendment Bill, air pollution allegedly caused by cement godowns in the Chembur-Govandi area and the demolition of Babri Masjid. Specifically referring to the FIR about the Babri Masjid, the court noted that the state had claimed slogans about the matter “will create rift in the society” but had produced “no material” to support the allegation.
