Today's Video Focus: India's Supreme Court has ruled that the disputed holy site in Ayodhya
in northern India should be given to Hindus who want to build a temple
there.
The case, which has been bitterly contested for decades by Hindus and
Muslims, centres on the ownership of the land in Uttar Pradesh state.
At the centre of the row is the 16th Century Babri mosque which was
demolished by Hindu mobs in 1992, sparking riots that killed nearly
2,000 people.
Muslims would get another plot of land to construct a mosque, the court
said.
