The Uttar Pradesh government has identified possible plots for a mosque in Ayodhya, in lieu of the recent Supreme Court order greenlighting the construction of a temple at the former site of the Babri Masjid which Hindus claim to be Lord Ram's birthplace. The UP government has identified five plots in Mirzapur, Shamshuddinpur and Chandpur, all outside the "panchkosi parikrama", a 15-km periphery enclosing an area considered sacred.
