At a public event organised by Antarrashtriya Hindu Parishad–Rashtriya Bajrang Dal, founder Pravin Togadia praised his role in the Babri demolition and called Muslims “snakes”, describing Hindus as “ants who kill the snake”. He glorified violence, saying, “We made our mandir and made sure nothing of Babar’s name will exist in India… Didn’t the snake named Babri die? So whenever we ask Hindus to unite, the snake will die. That’s why I say the Hindu will beat you and win.”
