 Babri mosque was not built over temple: experts -DAWN - International; June 20, 2003
Earlier in June, the Shankaracharya had proposed a peace formula under which the Babri Masjid site be handed over to a government-appointed committee and a temple to Ram be built at the site, in return for which claims bs by the VHP to the sites at Mathura and Varanasi would be given up.

The respective stands taken by the VHP and the AIBMAC have resulted in a deadlock over the Babri Masjid dispute, and hurt chances for an early settlement over an issue that has dominated politics in northern India over the last decade.
