At an event organised by Vishwa Hindu Parishad and Bajrang Dal, BJP legislator T. Raja Singh tore a picture of Aurangzeb and called for violence against his admirers. He declared, “The way I tore this poster, you should tear up those Aurangzeb lovers. We won’t stop; we will create history.” He urged people to demolish Aurangzeb’s grave, either manually or with a bulldozer.
He further incited violence, saying, “Just like we broke Babri, now we will erase Aurangzeb’s tomb. We are ready to do this; we are ready to get our heads chopped and chop the heads of those terrorists.” He added, “We are not scared to kill our enemies.”
Claiming that all Indians want Aurangzeb’s grave demolished, he stated, “I want to make India a Hindu Rashtra and fight a war for that. I want to create ‘Hindu Veers’ (militias) and demolish Aurangzeb’s tomb. I don’t care if the BJP expels me for this. A bulldozer needs to be used on that tomb.”
