Senior advocate Rajeev Dhavan, representing Muslim parties in the Ram-Janmbhoomi-Babri masjid land dispute case, tore up a pictorial map provided by the All India Hindu Mahasabha purportedly showing the exact birthplace of Lord Ram during the hearings in the Supreme Court on Wednesday.
Dhavan objected to the reference to the map by Senior advocate Vikas Singh, representing the AIHM.
Dhavan then asked the bench as to what he should do with it, to which the bench said that he can shred it into pieces.
Dhavan then tore the pictorial map, provided by the AIHM counsel, in the courtroom.

The bench had then asked Singh to proceed with the hearing saying, "Mr Dhavan, we have taken note of your objection.
