Ayodhya quotes

Today's the D-day.. and the Ayodhya verdict has finally been delivered by the Allahabad High Court. I took the day off.. bracing myself for the verdict (lol.. ). Though it's such a significant issue.. the roots of which dates back to centuries.. the whole hooplah around it doesn't make much sense to us youngsters... "why so much fuss for just a piece of land? ".. is the general feeling I guess..

Check out this piece from the bangalore mirror.. questions to twenty-somethings on what they know about the ayodhya dispute.. pretty awesome..

I was looking out for updates from twitter around the time the verdict was supposed to come.. and there were so many funny tweets and quotes about this whole thing.. It is quite amazing how we are able to look at the lighter side of things.. laugh at ourselves.. be it the CWG or the Ayodhya.. that speaks a lot about our level of maturity. So I hope that the issue gets resolved peacefully.. and we put behind things like religious fundamentalism..(cummon.. these are out of fashion now).. and concentrate on more important issues that confront us as a nation.. (poverty.. folks?)

Here goes some nice ones... (the best at the top).. feel free to add more..
