Report Of The AYODHYA Liberhan Commission (longest running enquiry commission of the world)

The Liberhan Commission is a long-running inquiry commissioned by the Indian government to investigate the destruction of the disputed structure Babri Mosque in Ayodhya in 1992. Led by retired Indian Supreme Court Judge M S Liberhan, it was formed on 16 December 1992 by an order of the Indian Home Union Ministry following the demolition of the Babri Masjid in Ayodhya on 6 December and the riots in Ayodhya. The Commission was expected to submit its report within three months. Extensions were given forty-eight times, and after a delay of 17 years, the commission submitted the report to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on 30 June 2009.[1] In November 2009, contents of the report were leaked to the news media, causing a row in the Indian parliament.

The one-man panel, one of the country's longest running inquiry commissions, cost the government Rs.8 crore, and wrote the report on the sequence of events leading to the destruction of the Babri mosque by Hindu mobs on December 6, 1992.
Sources told IANS that besides identifying those who played a role in the destruction of the 16th century mosque, the commission would also unravel why and how the demolition happened and name the larger forces and actors responsible for it.
Appointed by former prime minister P.V. Narasimha Rao two weeks after the demolition on December 16, 1992, to ward off criticism against his government for having failed to protect the mosque, the commission in August 2005 finished hearing its last witness Kalyan Singh – who was Uttar Pradesh chief minister at the time of the demolition and was dismissed soon after.
In 16 years of its proceedings, the commission recorded statements of several politicians, bureaucrats and police officials including Kalyan Singh, late Narasimha Rao, former deputy prime minister L.K. Advani and his colleagues Murli Manohar Joshi and Uma Bharati as well as Mulayam Singh Yadav.
Top bureaucrats and police officials of Uttar Pradesh, the then district magistrate R.N. Srivastava and Senior Superintendent of Police D.B. Roy of Ayodhya also recorded their statements on the demolition
