RSS has no reason to regret Babri demolition, Ram temple movement is on: Mohan Bhagwat | RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat on Saturday said that the Sangh has no reason to regret the Babri mosque demolition that happened 17 years ago and it would continue with the Ram temple movement. "We want the Ram temple to be built there
and we have been working towards the construction of the temple for long and there
is no question of regret. Whatever happened there that time, lakhs of people had
gathered there, which represented different section of the society including Muslim
kar sevaks (volunteers for a religious cause), who believed that they played with
their sentiments that is why the demolition took place. Those responsible for
playing with the sentiments of the people should regret. We don't," Bhagwat told
reporters on the eve of the 17th anniversary of episode. Questioning the credibility
of the Liberhan Commission report, the RSS chief said that there was no conspiracy
involved in bringing down the mosque. "What has been said in the Liberhan report
could have been said in 1993 also. There was no point of spending so much money
and so much time on that. There is a question mark over the credibility of the
Commission report. There are many factual errors in it. There was no conspiracy
in the mosque demolition. It was a people's movement and they had gathered there
because no one paid any heed to their sentiments. There was no pre-planning,"
Bhagwat said. Last month, the Centre published the long awaited report which named
BJP leaders -- including former Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee and opposition
leader Lal Krishna Advani , for not preventing the 1992 destruction of the 16th
century Babri Masjid.structure, in which images of Ram Lala had been placed. |
