Abstract
Ayodhya dispute is the longest running legal case in India. This paper attempts to study how The Supreme Court’s judgment on this dispute was covered in news channels. The study analyzed the news coverage on the television channels: DD News- Hindi and English, CNN IBN, Aaj Tak, and IBN7. More specifically, this study investigates that how Indian television channels frame the Ayodhya verdict news? The study identified three dominant frames: peace and communal harmony, verdict and the way forward, religion- Mandir vs. Masjid. All the three frames were observed in all the channels. Our study found out that the public broadcaster tried to present the news without any sensationalism and dramatization, by not using provocative visuals. English News channels presented the news in much more objective manner compared to the Hindi News channels.
