Days after Mohan Bhagwat lashed out at the resurgence of the temple-mosque controversy in the country, the latest issue of a Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS)-affiliated magazine says it is a battle to know this historical truth from Somnath to Sambhal and beyond. Seeking “civilized justice”.
Amid the controversy over who insulted BR Ambedkar, even as historical records “clearly indicate” how the Congress treated the Chairman of the Constitution Drafting Committee, recent developments in Uttar Pradesh’s Sambhal revealed in an editorial published in “Wired with the People”. The latest issue of organizer noted.

The controversy, which started with a petition to survey the Sri Harihar temple “now structured” as Jama Masjid in the “historic city” of Uttar Pradesh, is opening a new debate about the various constitutional rights granted to individuals and communities.
Prafulla wrote in an editorial, “Rather than limiting the debate to the Hindu-Muslim question through a pseudo-secularist prism, we need a rational and inclusive debate in search of civilizational justice based on true history, involving all sections of society.” Ketkar, editor organizer, noted.
“From Somnath to Sambhal and beyond, this battle to know historical truth is not about religious supremacy. It is against Hindu ethos. It is about reaffirming our national identity and seeking civil justice,” it said.
RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat last week expressed concern over the revival of several temple-mosque disputes in the country and asserted that he believed some people could become “leaders of Hindus” after the construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya. Raising issues like
Delivering a lecture on “Bharat – Vishwaguru” at the Sahajeevan Lecture Series (Lecture Series) in Pune on Thursday, Mr. Bhagwat made a stand for an inclusive society and said there is a need to show the world that India can live in harmony.
“We have been living in harmony for a long time. If we want to impart this harmony to the world, we must model it. Some people have said that they can become leaders of Hindus by raising similar issues in new places after Ram Mandir is built. This is not acceptable,” the RSS chief said. He said, “The Ram temple was built because it is a matter of faith for all Hindus.
“Every day a new issue (dispute) is coming up. How can this be allowed? It cannot continue. India needs to show that we can live together,” Mr Bhagwat said, without mentioning any specific site.
The editorial notes that the story of religious identity in India is not very different from the question of caste. “The Congress tried to ignore the caste question, delayed the implementation of social justice and exploited the caste identity for electoral gains. The story of religious identity is not much different,” it said.
“After the painful partition of the motherland on Islamic grounds, instead of striving for civilizational justice by telling the truth of history and restoring the present for a prosperous future, the Congress and Communist historians chose to whitewash the sins of the invaders. “Added an editorial in a weekly magazine.
Ambedkar goes to the “root cause” of caste discrimination and provides a constitutional remedy for it. “The time has come to address this quest for civil justice. We need a common approach to end religious perversion and inequality,” it said.
“This approach, based on acknowledging the truth of history, separating “Indian Muslims” from the perpetrators of “iconoclasm and religious supremacy” and addressing the quest for civilizational justice, offers hope for peace and harmony,” the editorial added.
“Denying such access to justice and the right to know the truth will encourage radicalization and hostility as some colonial elites and pseudo-intellectuals want to continue to practice inferior secularism,” it noted.
The weekly, which published a cover story on the Sambhal controversy in its latest issue, accused the Congress of “cobbling” by presenting larger-than-life pictures of bigoted rulers like Mughal emperors Babur and Aurangzeb. “Indian Muslims” that they were rulers here before the British.
“The Muslims of India must realize that they are heirs but victims of barbaric Islamic attacks. Their forefathers are descended from various sects of Hindus and therefore they must reject the ideology of iconoclasm.”
