Hawzah News Agency - (Ayodhya - India) - Supreme Court to commence day-to-day hearing of appeals against 2010 high court verdict on Aug. 6.

The mediation process in the sensitive Muslim-Hindu dispute concerning a mosque in northern India have failed, the country’s Supreme Court said on Friday.

The dispute involves the 16th-century Babri mosque in the city of Ayodhya which was razed in 1992 by Hindu activists. The demolition of the mosque sparked nationwide riots that left around 2,000 people dead.

Muslims demand a new mosque at the site, while Hindus claim that this was where their god Ram was born, demanding instead a temple at the site.
