Conflict over a small piece of land in northern India sets climax for religious tension. The small area of land has sparked thousands of riots over whether a mosque or Hindu temple will be placed in the area. Hindus believe that place is the site of Lord Rama's birthplace. However in the 1500's the first Mongol emperor built a mosque on the area. In the 1990s, Hindus rioted and torn down the ancient mosque, causing violence to break out across the country between Hindus and Muslims. India's supreme court shall make a ruling on the land.
