d) No clear favoritism.

Answer 1

According to Rushdie, the decision in the case of Babri Masjid seemed to favor the Hindus.

Step-by-step explanation:

The case of Babri Masjid refers to the legal dispute over a religious site in Ayodhya, India, where a mosque, Babri Masjid, was demolished in 1992 by Hindu activists claiming it was built on the birthplace of Lord Rama. The decision in this case is not explicitly mentioned in the provided information. However, according to Rushdie, the decision seemed to favor the Hindus as he mentions that Hindus threatened to supplant Muslims in positions of authority in business and government that Muslims had held for centuries.
