On 15 January 1885, the Ram Temple-Babri Masjid dispute went to court for the first time. Mahant Raghubar Das of Nirmohi Akhara filed a petition in the Faizabad Court seeking permission to establish a mandap for Hindus to worship near the disputed Babri Masjid. On 24 February 1885, Justice Harikishan rejected Raghubar Das's application, saying that the temple-like house he wanted to build for worship would be close to the mosque and this might exacerbate the conflict between the two sides. On March 27, 1934, communal clashes broke out again at Shahjahanpur near the Babri Masjid in Ayodhya, which damaged parts of the Babri Masjid, which was later repaired by Muslims. Two years after India gained independence, in December 1949, an idol of Lord Rama appeared inside the Babri Masjid, which Muslims claim was taken by Hindus and replaced inside the mosque. The incident spread to the capital Delhi and then Prime Minister Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru took note of the incident and directed the state government to remove the idol from inside the mosque but it was not removed has been appointed. Magistrate M Singh ordered that the idol could be worshiped from outside with three priests. On 6 January 1950, Gopal Singh Visrad of the Hindu Mahasabha and Mahant Paramahansh Ramchandradas of Digambar Akhara applied to the Faizabad Court seeking an order for Hindus to perform puja at the place where the idol appeared. In January 1950, Justice Bir Singh issued a temporary injunction preventing the Muslims from removing the statue. In March 1951, the court issued an interim order allowing worship after closing the inside of the mosque. He also asked Muslim parties not to interfere in the puja. On 26 April 1955, the Allahabad High Court also upheld the order of the judge in March In December 1959, Nirmohi Akhara filed a third suit claiming to be the guardian of the birthplace of Ram. Exactly two years later, on December 18, 1961, the Sunni Central Waqf Board filed its fourth suit in the case and claimed not only the mosque property but also the adjoining land. Thus, the case remained pending before the court for many years. The Vishva Hindu Parishad was formed in 1964 and held a Dharma Sansad in Delhi in April 1984 to discuss the liberation of Ram Janmabhoomi.
 
The locks of the disputed site, which had been in operation since 1949, were opened to Hindu worshipers by court order. This angered some Muslims and they opposed the order of the District Judge on February 3, 1986, arguing that the order was issued without any consultation with the Muslim side in the Lucknow bench of the High Court. On February 6 of the same month, Muslims formed the Babri Masjid Action Committee. In November 1989, the Vishwa Hindu Parishad announced that the foundation stone of the Ram Temple would be laid in November and also released a model of the proposed temple. On September 25, 1990, then BJP chief LK Advani led a chariot procession from Somnath in Gujarat to Ayodhya. Former Prime Minister of India Atal Bihari Vajpayee and current Prime Minister Narendra Modi also participated in the Rath Yatra. The chariot was expected to reach the birthplace of Lord Ram on October 30 but Advani's chariot was stopped and arrested in Samastipur on October 23 on the direction of Bihar Chief Minister Lalu Prasad Yadav The then Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mulayam Singh Yadav ordered police to open fire and charge batons to control the crowd, killing and injuring many car workers. In the 1991 elections, Narasimha Rao became the Prime Minister of the country In October 1991, the Kalyan government acquired 2.77 acres of land around the disputed site. The High Court allowed the government to take control of the acquired land but prohibited any construction on it On 30 October 1992, the Vishva Hindu Parishad announced the resumption of car services on 6 December. And in view of this day, a large number of paramilitary forces were deployed in Ayodhya.
 
Finally came the day, December 6, 1992, when millions of people arrived in Ayodhya for the service of the car. On the same day, the demolition of the controversial Babri Masjid structure sparked communal clashes across the country, killing more than a thousand people and bringing the governance of Uttar Pradesh into the hands of the President. Chief Minister Kalyan Singh himself resigned before the suspension of the Union government. Central forces took control of the disputed area on December 7 and On December 10, the Center banned the RSS, VHP, Bajrang Dal and Jamaat-e-Islami. The December 6 attacks led to renewed communal clashes in various parts of the country, a terrible example of which was the March 11, 1993 Mumbai blasts. In 1996, the Bharatiya Janata Party won the Lok Sabha elections. In February 2002, the Vishva Hindu Parishad set March 15 as the date for the resumption of construction and Kar Sevaks from various parts of the country arrived in Ayodhya again The arson killed 58 people instantly and communal clashes broke out again and many people were killed. In April 2003, a three-member bench of the Allahabad High Court resumed hearing the Ayodhya case. In March of the same year, the High Court asked the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) to investigate whether there was a temple under the mosque On July 5, 2005, security forces shot dead five terrorists who entered the disputed area and attacked it. On September 30, 2010, neither party refused to accept the judgment of the High Court dividing the disputed land into three parts and appealed to the Supreme Court against the judgment of the High Court.
The Supreme Court continued to hear the case for several years and in January 2019, a five-member bench was constituted under the then Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi comprising Justice SA Bobde, Justice NV Ramanna, Justice UU Lalit and the current Chief Justice D. Y. Chandrachud. However, in the same month, the five-member bench was reconstituted to include Justice Bobde, Justice Chandrachud, Justice Ashok Bhushan and Justice S Abdul Nazir The Supreme Court handed over 2.77 acres of land to Ram Lalla Virajman, identifying the disputed site as the birthplace of Rama, and directed the Center to form a trust within three months to build the temple The Sunni board was asked to give five acres of land for the construction of the mosque, ending the second longest trial in the history of the Supreme Court and giving historic justice to the Ram temple dispute.
The Sri Ram Janmabhoomi Tirtha Kshetra Trust was constituted by the Union Government on February 5, 2020 with 15 members as directed by the Supreme Court. The first meeting of the trust was held on February 19, 2020 in Delhi He was elected Secretary and Nripendra Mishra was appointed Chairman of the Temple Construction Committee.
