Secure in Secularism

When will the much awaited-verdict on the case over the ownership of the disputed site at Ayodhya happen?
Guess even the Supreme Court would not have an answer to it! Would the verdit be based on anarchy or law?

In either case we all have to wait.

It is sad because a country like India that is amidst diversities has somehow not acquired that sense of what we  have in common : the assumptions, the habits, the shared-reference points an so on.

From my personal opinion, 2.77 acres of land, can that not be divided. If Rohan Bopanna from India and Aisam-Ul-Haq-Qureshi from Pakistan can play together during the US Open men's doubles; and if Hindus villagers in Karnataka Gadag district can offer help to rebuild the 50-year-old mosque for the benefit of a handful of 20 muslims in the village, why can't there be a healthy way out to resolve the issue rather than depending upon our so called government's decision.
