The Supreme Court on Wednesday rejected all interim pleas seeking to intervene as parties in the Babri masjid-Ram temple land dispute case. A special bench comprising Chief Justice Dipak Misra and Justices Ashok Bhushan and S A Nazeer accepted the contention that only original parties to the dispute would be allowed to advance arguments and the intervention applications of unrelated persons should be rejected.

The apex court also rejected the plea of BJP leader Subramanian Swamy seeking to intervene in the ongoing matter. The court, however, ordered revival of Swamy's disposed of writ petition in which he had sought enforcement of his fundamental right to worship at Ram temple."I had filed a writ petition saying that I have a fundamental right to worship and this is a superior right than property right," Swamy said. The special bench of the apex court is seized of a total of 14 appeals filed against the HC judgment.
