Lucknow, Sept 17 (PTI): An effort for deferring the judgement in the 60-year-old title suit in the Ramjanambhoomi -Babri Masjid dispute was today rebuffed by the Allahabad High Court, which will now pronounce its verdict on Sept 24.

The Special Bench, comprising Justice S.U Khan , Justice D.V Sharma and Justice Sudhir Agarwal, decided to imposed a heavy fine which would be annunced later though Justice Agarwal proposed a fine of Rs. five lakh.
The judges asked the parties whether they were interested in going for any discussion for a compromise and none of them showed interest. Following this, the court rejected the petition for deferring the judgement.
