My grand ma used to say - JAR, JAMEEN, JORU, JOR KE; JOR GHATE TO AUR KE - Immovable (property), land and wife belong to the strong/ powerful people, your power is reduced, these things become others'!
There is lot of merit in this popular proverb of our villages even today.
What had worked against Hindu claim in 1885, that 350 years has passed . . . worked similarly against Sunni wakf board!
Hindus though kept praying inside the mosque . . . had no way to claim the temple and so they lost in 1885.
Similarly, in 1949 when during a riot the lord Ram idol was placed in the main dome area, Muslims, demoralised by the the division of India, had no confidence in the shystem . . . left the issue! The first title suit was filed only in 1989 from the muslim side! Thats the reason all the judges have declined their claim! Of course in addition there were other reasons sought by justice Sharma that as testified by the shia clerik (dont know if it would have been a shia mosque how he would have testified!) a mosque on the religiously disputed location is HARAM (unreligious) . . .
