I will not abide by the court
verdict: Shiv Sena leader

Shiv Sena member Sanjay Nirupam on Monday created a flutter in the Rajya Sabha when he declared that he would not abide by the court verdict on the Ayodhya issue.

"Courts cannot decide where Lord Ram's puja should be done. I will not abide by the court's verdict on this issue. I will not allow a mosque to be built on the site," Nirupam said during a discussion on the Ayodhya issue.

Deputy Chairperson Najma Heptulla asked Nirupam to be cautious while making such remarks about courts and court verdicts.

Moolchand Meena of the Congress said the Shiv Sena member should be asked to leave the House, while his party colleague Bal Kavi Bairagi said Nirumpam's observations were as good as asking the Union Law Minister Arun Jaitley to leave the House.

On queries by opposition members whether Nirupam's remarks would be expunged, Heptulla said: "I will see what has to be expunged and what not."
