Babri `Masjid' frame-up

The RSS Sarsanghchalak Shri Sudarshan is absolutely right when he

stated that the Babri `masjid' was blasted by a bomb. However he has

used an incorrect word, namely, bomb when he should have said

dynamite. In fact the relic was dynamited from the opposite side

where the huge crowd of karsevaks along with BJP leaders Shri L.K.

Advani, Umashri Bharati and Dr Murli Manohar Joshi had gathered. One

week before the destruction of the edifice Doordarshan showed

placards almost every half an hour on which were inscribed

words "Kalyan Singh promises to protect the Masjid". A student of

propaganda tactics of the Second World War would wonder why the

Congress Government was displaying these placards almost non-stop. A

foreign news agency broadcast is reported to have stated that the

Indian Government's covert agency had started dynamiting the disputed

structure from the rear side.

 

When the crowd saw that it was being blown up, it rushed as a herd

reaction to the building to take part in the work with improvised

hand tools. It is also said that the foreign agency had also stated

that some people had taken a video film of the dynamiting operation

which the Indian intelligence agencies were frantically trying to get

hold of. The name of the foreign broadcast agency is still not known.

The connection between the almost non-stop placard display and the

GoI's role is obvious. Congress, particularly its Prime Ministerial

aspirant, Sharad Pawar who was then Defence Minister had used the

Army's Sappers and Miners to blow up the structure and put the blame

on the BJP. It was a great frame-up. Those who saw the expression on

the face of Shri Advani and other BJP leaders as shown by

Doordarshan, known that they were absolutely surprised by the sudden

turn of events. Congress motive was clear. They wanted to frame the

BJP in the destruction to dismiss the BJP run State Governments and

to win the sympathy of the Muslims.
