Bharatiya Janata Party MP Sakshi Maharaj announced that the construction of Ram temple in Ayodhya will begin on December 6 even as the Supreme Court on Friday reserved its order in the politically sensitive case.

The top court on Wednesday wrapped up the 40-day long marathon hearings in the Babri Masjid-Ram Janmabhoomi land dispute case and granted three days to contesting parties to file written note on moulding of relief.

"It is logical that temple construction should begin on the date when the structure was demolished," Sakshi Maharaj said. Right wing activists, who claimed the 16th century mosque was built after demolishing a pre-existing temple, razed the structure on December 6, 1992, sparking riots across the country.

Talking to reporters in Unnao, his parliamentary constituency, Sakshi Maharaj hailed Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for their efforts for the construction of a grand temple in Ayodhya.

Urging Hindus and Muslims to come together to help in the temple construction, the BJP leader said: "The Sunni Waqf Board should accept the fact that Babar was an invader and not their ancestor."

A five-judge Constitution bench, headed by Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi, has been hearing the Ayodhya land dispute case for the last 40 days.

The apex court on August 6 had started day-to-day proceedings in the politically sensitive case after the earlier mediation process to resolve the dispute had failed.

In September, the top court had set October 18 deadline to wrap up hearing. In October, the court revised the deadline to October 17.

The judgment in the matter is to be pronounced by November 17, the day the CJI will retire.
