Further, the SC bench headed by CJI Ranjan Gogoi has sought a report from the registry on how much time it would take to facilitate the live-streaming of proceedings in the Ram Janmabhoomi case. The SC bench has stated that a decision on this regard will be taken only after the registry’s report.

The SC bench has been hearing the Ayodhya land dispute case on a day-to-day basis since August 6.

The Sunni Waqf Board has been objecting to live-streaming of the proceedings.
