New Delhi: The report submitted by the mediation panel in the Ayodhya land dispute will be reviewed by the Supreme Court on Friday.

On July 18, a five-judge constitution bench headed by Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi had asked the three-member mediation panel to inform the court about the outcome of the proceedings by August 1.

The panel submitted its report on Thursday in a sealed cover about the progress made in the in-camera mediation proceedings.

Last year, the court referred the dispute for mediation and had set up the panel. The panel was asked to hold talks to explore an amicable settlement. The three member panel includes spiritual guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, senior advocate Sriram Panchu and former top court judge FM Kalifulla.
