Kozhikode: Reconstruction of Babri Masjid on the same site was the only solution to the problem created by 'fascist' forces 10 years ago, Indian National League (INL) president, Ebrahim Sulaiman Sait, said on December 12.

"We can't allow the fascist forces to destroy peace anymore and it is time for people of all religions to come together to fight the menace of fascism," Sait, who is also the convenor of the All-India Muslim Personal Law Board, told reporters.

Muslims were prepared to wait further for a final judicial verdict and the Babri Masjid Committee, constituted by the Board, would abide by law and not resort to any violent agitation for reconstruction of the Masjid, he said.

"Fundamentalists disturbing peace are only in minority and right-thinking Muslims and Hindus still form the majority in the country striving for peace," Sait said, adding the Board was pressing the Centre to ensure an early court judgement by arranging a day-to-day hearing on the matter.

"The largescale state-sponsored genocide in Gujarat is only another phase of the fascist agenda to destroy peace and it is unfortunate that some Viswa Hindu Parishad (VHP) leaders have threatened that they will do a Gujarat in other parts of the country if they are not permitted to construct the Ram Temple", he said.

To create awareness among the people on the urgent need for a solution to the decade long dispute, the Board was organising a series of public meetings and seminars throughout the country from December 6 to 23, he added.
