Far-right monk Raju Das, during a conference organised by Aaj Tak, challenged those questioning the alleged theft of funds at the Ram temple to join him in Mathura to demolish the Shahi Eidgah Mosque and build a “Krishna Janmabhoomi” temple. He declared that, through the courts, they would openly demolish the mosque and build the temple, adding that they had demolished the Babri mosque and would do the same in Mathura.
