A five judge bench of Supreme Court which includes the Chief Justice Gogoi and the Chief Justice designate Mishra (in India, the senior most judge gets to be the Chief Justice) has completed today the day-to-day hearing of the 206 year old case in 40 days. They are expected to give their judgment in 23 days, i.e., around Nov. 8/9.
The government is making strong arrangements to ensure that nothing untoward happens in case the judgment goes against one party or the other. People connected with the case have been provided security. There is a rumor that the Sunni Muslim litigants are ready to abandon their claim on the mosque and would be satisfied if alternate space is provided to them. Let us see what happens.
I am not satisfied with the design of the proposed temple. There will be millions of people visiting it in future (if it is built, of which there is all the possibility now). This old style temple will lead to unmanageable crowds, long lines and perhaps stampedes too.
They should think of a temple which has a lot of open space, something like al-bayt al-ḥarām in Mecca. The crowds at Ram temple in Ayodhya will easily exceed the crowds at Ka'aba. The temple builders have designed a two-lane road where the need will be for a 64-lane road.
