Hindus gather at Ayodhya to build Ram Temple
AYODHYA. Oct 19: Thousands of Hindus gathered on Friday In tills remote temple town for a ritual during which they plan to build a shrine in an area Muslims claim to be their own sacred land, reports Reuter.
The religious dispute has led to at least 2.000 deaths over the past two years in street battles between Hindus and Muslims. .
The 40-day ritual is being held by the Vishwa Hindu Parlshad (VHP) or World Hindu Organisation and is just two km (one mile) from the white domed mosque both Muslims and Hindus claim.
Hindus say the mosque was built by Muslim emperors after razing a temple at the birthplace of the warrior King Rama, one of their most ven eratcd gods.
Muslims say it is difficult to pinpoint where Rama was born, and that they oppose
the 450-ycar-old mosque being pulled down.
The air at the site of the Hindu ritual is. thick with the scent of marigolds as Hindu volunteers, half-naked ascetics with white ash smeared on their bodies, chant Jai Sri Ram' or victory to Lord Rama.'
On one day during the ritual, the volunteers will move to the disputed shrine and begin building the temple, said VHP General Secretary Ashok Singhal.
"When we start, it will be with a bang." said Singhal. "Holy saints have decreed that the construction of the Rama temple begin unannounced, and so will it be '
Other VHP sources say a likely date could be October 30. the first anniversary of a bid to destroy the mosque. At least 16 people died between October 30 and November 2 last year when Hindu militants tried to storm the mosque.
the dispute Is the subject of a petition In the High Court of Uttar Pradesh state, where Ayodhya falls. But the VHP says it will begin the temple construction at a spot not disputed.
A group of Muslims opposing the VHP say this spot falls within the boundaries of the shrine and speak of "an emergency plan" to deal with the situation.
The Muslim group says Its volunteers, will stage a protest rally in Lucknow, the capital of Uttar Pradesh, today.
The protest is also aimed at the state government, headed by the right- wing Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). an ally of the VHP.
During the state elections, the BJP campaigned on a plank of Hindu resurgence and promised to build the Rama temple.
