Efforts to explore an out-of-court settlement in three major religious site disputes in Uttar Pradesh have failed to gain traction, with parties in the Gyanvapi, Sri Krishna Janmabhoomi-Shahi Eidgah and the Sambhal Shahi Jama Masjid cases insisting that the courts adjudicate the matter.
The Supreme Court has launched the 'Supreme Court Action for Mediated Adjudication and Disputes Harmonisation Across Nation' (SAMADHAN SAMAROH) to encourage amicable settlement of pending cases through mediation ahead of a Special Lok Adalat scheduled to be held on August 21, 22 and 23.
