SC refuses urgent hearing on 'Ram ki Janambhoomi,' says, 'No film can come in the way of mediation'

Rejecting the petition for an urgent hearing in a plea which was seeking a stay on the release of a movie ‘Ram ki Janambhoomi,’ the Supreme Court has held that there is no need to hurry as ‘no film can come in the way of mediation.’

News agency ANI tweeted, “A Supreme Court bench of Justice SA Bobde and Justice S Abdul Nazeer said, "what’s the relation between movie and mediation. Parties want to settle it. We are not so pessimistic. No film can come in the way of mediation.”

The plea was seeking a stay on the movie as it alleged that it will prejudice the mediation process in Ram Mandir- Babri Masjid case. The apex court has posted the matter for hearing after two weeks.
