In significant remarks amid the Gyanvapi mosque row, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat on June 02 said that the matter is ongoing, history cannot be changed and neither today's Hindus nor today's Muslims created it.
"Gyanvapi matter is ongoing. We can't change history. Neither today's Hindus nor today's Muslims created it. It happened at that time. Islam came from outside via attackers," Bhagwat said in Nagpur.
He said the dispute should not be escalated. "We shouldn't bring out a new matter daily. Why should we escalate the dispute? We have devotion towards Gyanvapi and we are doing something as per that, it is alright. But why look for a Shivling in every masjid?" he asked.
