Verdict!

The verdict came in. The High court decided to split the area up and give the central most disputed area to a Hindu party and another part to a Muslim part. A third part is being given to another Hindu sect, whose role in this I do not fully understand.

It has already been decided that the case will be appealed to the Supreme Court, so as far as I can tell nothing has happened or will. But the massive police presence certainly gave everyone the impression that something would happen.

We'll see tomorrow. But for now, I am happy that things seem to remain peaceful. I would have no problem if the Supreme Court decided to wait several years before making its ultimate decision.
