In Maharashtra’s tug-of-war over Hindutva credentials, BJP and MNS have challenged Shiv Sena’s long-standing narrative that it was responsible for demolishing Babri Masjid.
With the inauguration of Kashi Vishwanath Dham by PM Modi in Varanasi, BJP’s ‘Kashi project’ is almost complete, and so is the invisibilisation of Gyanvapi mosque.
Last year, retired judge Surendra Kumar Yadav had acquitted all the 32 accused, including LK Advani, MM Joshi, Uma Bharti and Kalyan Singh, in the Babri mosque demolition case.
An RSS functionary says the way every section of the society is participating in construction of Ram Temple ‘should put to rest any further debate on the 6 December 1992 events’.
The bench was hearing former judge S K Yadav's request to continue his personal security in view of the sensitivity of the case decided by him on his last day in office.
Justice Liberhan, whose enquiry commission spent 17 years investigating the Babri Masjid demolition and examined the accused including LK Advani, says he stands by the final report.
L.K. Advani and his partymen have not discovered a new liberal approach to politics. Just like the Congress, they have also figured that India’s politics has changed.
While global corporations setting up GCCs in India continue to express confidence in availability of skilled AI engineers, the panel argued that India’s real challenge lies elsewhere.
This agreement is not with regard to any specific project like the planned co-development of fighter engines, but an overarching agreement that will enable a host of joint development and research.
Without a Congress revival, there can be no challenge to the BJP pan-nationally. Modi’s party is growing, and almost entirely at the cost of the Congress.
