Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray on Friday said the BJP-led Union government cannot take “credit” for the Supreme Court’s much-awaited Ayodhya verdict.

The Supreme Court is scheduled to pronounce on Saturday its verdict in the Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid land dispute in Ayodhya. The top court is likely to pronounce the judgment at 10.30 am.

“We had requested the government to make a law on construction of Ram Temple (in Ayodhya) but the government did not do that. Now, when the SC is going to pronounce the verdict, the government can’t take credit for it (even if the verdict favours the pro-temple side),” Mr Thackeray said.

The Sena and BJP are at loggerheads over government formation in Maharashtra, the stalemate over equal sharing of the chief minister’s post leading to an impasse, resulting in the resignation of CM Devendra Fadnavis a day ahead of the expiry of the 13th state Assembly.
