A five-member Supreme Court bench headed by Chief Justice of India (CJI) Ranjan Gogoi will deliver its verdict in the Ayodhya temple-mosque title suit Saturday. In spite of Saturday being a non-working day for the Supreme Court, the CJI has decided to go ahead and announce the verdict. Given the sensitivity of the case, the government has increased the security cover for all the judges involved in giving the verdict.

Here’s a look at the five judges who are involved in this landmark case.
