A Great Moment of Pride and Joy for all Indians - Ram Mandir at Ayodhya, a Transformative Event for Indian Political Discourse

On August 5, 2020, India will usher in a great moment of pride and joy with the auspicious Ram Janmabhoomi Pujan, a first step towards the restoration of the lost glory of Lord Ram Mandir at Ayodhya, a precursor to establishing the Hindu Rashtra in the New India

Bharat has been a battleground for the western civilisation for well over 2000 years now. Alexander was the first to sume here on an exparision spree, followed by many Mongnis, shun (sakaj Kushan, and Hurs who came to ίασε India's wealth but were finally absorbed by our great Indic civilisation, Today one can't identify those who came from ancient Greece. Persia. Mesopotamia, Mongolia etc. Others like Hewn Sang, Fahyan. Al Baruni came in quest of Vedic knowledge to make their countries wealthier and wtser. They also spread the teachings of Gautam Buddha to Northern parts of Asia including China & Japari.

With the advent of Semitic cuits in the West Asia, its lust to spread its cuit the world over was seen in the onslaught of finst century with the emergence of Christianity. The Christians conquest for religious expansion had ruined the great Greek. Roman, and Egyptian civilisations. The challenge was to accept their religion or perish. But the real menace came with the advent of islam in the seventh century, when a certain Muhammad declared himselt the prophet of a new cult called blam. Later it spread over Europe, east of Asia and India. Earlier, the Muslims came in as looters, later they became invaders and finally became rulers of the Indian subcontinent. These allen rulers did not stop at invading and looting India. They used their swords to convert Hindus. They did torced conversion, destroyed Mandins, and erected mosques over therm Sri Ram Janmabhoomi Mandir was one of the chiet centres of faith for all Sanatanis, including Buddhists and Sikhs along with Hindus at the time of Akhand Bharat from Kabul to Kanyakumars.

Its cotiversion was a major achievement for the islamist rulers of Delhi. Hindus were morally defeated by destroying the centre of taith and erecting mosque aver it. The modern historians are misqueting this fact by comparing Islamic invasion with Ashok's battle of Kalinga, which was purely tor geographical expansion
On August 5, 2020, tive hundred years of struggle tor reclarnation ut Janmabhoomi of the most revered historical figure and seventh incarnation of Bhagwan Vishnu will come to an end.

With reconstruction of the temple, the taith, patience, tolerance, faith on Constitution and perseverance of 100 crore Hindus worldwide will re-establish the values of Sanatan dharma
This is the time for our minorities to realise that their ancestors were all Hindus. Today Egyptians, Iraqis Iranians and Indonesians have started taking pride in their pre-Islamic past. Even Pakistanis now believe that their King Forus defeated Alexander! A large number of Pakistanis now consider Gazani, Ghori and Babur as invaders who did not belong to Pakistan. It is time for Indian Muslims to introspect and try to join the main stream
According to renowned American Indie scholar Shri Nilesh Oak, the birth of King Dashrath, father of Bhagwan Ram. Is 12300 years BCE, means 14330 years from now.

Birthdate of Bhagwan Ram is November 24, 12340 BCE. Daks calculation is based on astronomical references given in the Valmiki Ramayan with reference to the birth of Shagwan Ram, which are proven as per modem astronomy and science. Many historical structures are evident at Ram's existence as a historical figure, which the Left historians have otherwise painted as a mythical character. In Sri Lanka, there are many places which are referred to as belonging to Ramayana periods like Ashok Vatika, or the place where Meghnad performed yagna etc.

In south Gujarat one Anavil Brahman community is believed to have perärmed yagna with ähagwan lam at Shabari's Butia. The place is known as Arnaval. Those who participated in the yagna are called Anavti Brahmans from that day onwards. But to oppose the reconstruction of Ram Mandir at Ayodhya the leftast historiaris tried their best to establish Karm as a mythoingical figure and Ramayan as Action
As per modern historians. Mir Baki (a lleuteriant of first Mughal invader Babur) demolished the Ram Mandir and erected a mosque over it. But I am of the opinion, by gaing through memoirs of Persian, Chinese & British travellers. that there was a grand temple at the birthplace of Shagwan Ram even after the period of Akbar, Jahangir and Shahjahan. Babur was a struggler when he conquered Deiht from Sikandar Lodhi.

He was not in a position to de such hemic tir the imposition of islam in the early phase of his rule as that might have antagonised the Hindus against him. It was Aurangzeb who did this heinous crime as he was a habitual oftender and cruel preacher of islam and had done it with Kashi & Mathura & other forty thousand temples as well.
There were several attempts made by Hindus to free the birthplace during slavery as well as per the records available one. Md Selim had filed an FIK against a group of Nthang Sikhs whe installed Trishul and painted Ran Naam inside the mimque and performed Yagna. In 1885 Mahant Raghubar das filed a suit in Faizabad (Now Ayodhya) district court to rebutid the terapie but the court dismissed II. In 1934 under the leadership of Mahant Digvijay Neth It of Gorakshpeeth Gorakhpur, Sadhus ciaimeri a portion of the premise and started perturming Puja but the Britisher rebuilt the damaged portion. The government seized the promise in 1949 after Hindus started perfarming Puja at the birthplace. The matter was then challenged in the court by Nirmohi Akhada
The turning point was the famous Shah Bano case, where the Supreme Court awarded her alimony as per Indian laws applicable to all Indian citizens. This was opposed by conservative Muslim leadership of the country and the then government led by late Rajiv Gandhi who enjoyed three fourth majority in the Parliament as he had won 1964 elections on a sympathy wave following the assassination of Mrs Indira Gandhi, amended the Constitution to averrule the Supreme Court Judgmerit given in favour of a helpless Muslim woman divorced illegally by her husband.

This case of shameless appeasement of Muslims by Congress party resulted in the consolidation of Hindu sentiments against such appeasement of minority. F. as the politkal party took full advantage of this growing Hindu alienation and eventually produced what is known as the Ram Janmabhoorni movement. On December & 1992, the disputed structure was demolished by karsevaks. The Nobel Prize-winning West Indies born Hindu author late VS Natpaul described this event as follows: "Pulling down the first Mughal emperor's masjid. is a marvellous Iden. I think in years to come it will be seen as a great moment. It would be a historical statement of India striving to regain her soul The Supreme Court pronounced the verdict in favour of the Ram Janmabhoomi Mandir on October 27 2019. after 70 years of the legal battle in independent India. It shows the tolerant face of Hindu society and its faith in the Constitution and legal system of the country The construction of the grand temple at Ayodhya must become a transformative event for Indian political discourse. From now on, Indians must learn to treat religion as a personal affair of an individual and should never be brought up to score political points or to gain electoral victories. This above chronology of events is necessary to mention here to understand the polarisation of Indian society to garner votes. As it has halted the process at development for almost 70 years, the country was divided into three divisions The argumentative Hindu who believe, why Hindus should carry legacy of Muslim invaders even after dividing the country in the name of religion. 2) The Liberal-Secular. Left-leaning Hindu who was ok with the status que or making a hospital ur educational institute or even a Masjid 3) The Muslims who were always of the view that Babur.

Aurarigreb were their ancestor and destroying a temple to bulid the mosque was their religious right. The hate for each other was growing louder day by day on the issue of Ram Mandir. A common Hindu feeling was that why Muslims stayed here in India if they wanted a mosque when we had given them a Pakistan? And the Muslizns always teel insecure because they got Pakistan, Hindus think they are overstaying here. Both the teelings were not there originally, but the appeasement politics brought it in For over 70 years the Ayodhya Mandir issue was a bone et contention for all parties versus HIP. BJF was always accused of polarising the Hindu in the name of Mandir. Article 370. and Common Civil Code etc. These were the election issues as BJP could identity Congress with appeasing Muslims and Christians at the inst. of Hindu culture and tradition by destroying them gradusily. But pity is Congress never tried to solve these issues in 60 years of their rule. They rather used to call BJP as a communal party. Now that the BJP is in power for a successive term, the controversial Article 370 has been abrogated. Ram Mandir is being recotistructed. The CAA has been enacted Only Issue pending as per its manifesto is the Uniform Civil Code The Nobel Prize-winning West Indies born Hindu author late VS Naipaul described this event as follows:

"Pulling down the first Mughal emperor's masjid), is a marvelous idea. I think in years to come it will be seen as a great moment.... It would be a historical statement of India striving to regain her soul." The construction of a grand temple at Ayodhya must become a transformative event for Indian political discourse. We need to learn from modern Christian countries of Europe and North America. They are all Christian countries. their national flags carry symbols of the holy cross they sweat by the Bible, and yet they are liberall if they are not afraid or asharned to call themselves Christians, why can't we call ourselves Hindus and swear by modernity and Liberal values? This is also the time for mur minorities to realise that their ancestors were all Hindus. Today Egyptians Iraqia. Iranians and Indonestans have started taking pride in their pre-islamic past. Even Pakistanis now belleve that their King Porus defeated Alexander! A large raimber of Pakistanis now consider Gazant Ghori and Babur as invaders whe and not being to Pakistan. It is time for Indian Muslims to introspect and try to join the main stream Musiems of this country have Inrgely welcomed the judgment of the Supreme Court. Now all sections of the society are expecting a new era of "Run-Rajya with the reconstruction of Sri Ram Mandir at Ayodhya Without Ram, there cannot be Ram-Rajya
