"From our perspective, this is a positive development as no Mandir will be demolished to build a Masjid. Everybody should accept the Supreme Court's verdict and maintain communal harmony," Mahali told ANI.
He said that a final statement will be issued by the Muslim organizations after a team of lawyers analyse and go through judgment.
The Supreme Court bench headed by Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi ordered that the central government within 3-4 months should formulate a scheme for setting up a trust and hand over the disputed site to it for construction of a temple.
The apex court also added that an alternative five acres of land at a prominent location in Ayodhya should be allotted for the construction of the mosque following consultation between the centre and state government.
