Ayodhya verdict: None of the five SC judges was born when 1st suit was filed

The first suit was filed on January 16, 1950, by a devotee, Gopal Singh Visharad, seeking protection of his right to worship Ram Lalla and a restraint order on authorities from removing idols of the deity from under the central dome where it was placed on the night of December 22, 1949. The SC termed placing of the idols under the central dome as the beginning of a new phase of the controversy.
