Aurangzeb’s grave: Controversy in Maharashtra over the tomb of Mughal emperor Aurangzeb is increasing. The controversy over the tomb of Mughal emperor Aurangzeb in Khuldabad in Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar is increasing. The Bajrang Dal and Vishwa Hindu Parishad have also intensified their demands amid the demand for the removal of the Samadhis of the Bharatiya Janata Party leaders. Both organizations have threatened that if the government does not take action in this matter, then they will do karseva here too.

These tombs are a symbol of atrocities and oppression on Hindus during the rule of Aurangzeb.

In this regard, the leaders of both organizations had said that they would jointly submit a memorandum to the state government and demand the removal of the tomb in a legal manner. If the government fails to do so, the statewide car service and protest will be held. These tombs are a symbol of centuries of atrocities and oppression on Hindus during the rule of Aurangzeb and hence they should be demolished.

Like Ayodhya, Aurangzeb’s tomb is also threatened

The leader of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad told the media, ‘Aurangzeb’s history is full of its cruelty. He imprisoned his father, killed his brothers and destroyed Hindu temples. His grave here reminds him of his atrocities. The Maharashtra government should remove it with immediate effect. If the government fails to do so, then we will karseva on it, as we did during the Ram Janmabhoomi movement.

Devendra Fadnavis also supports the demand to remove the tomb.

Mughal emperor Aurangzeb’s demand to remove the tomb was last week by government minister Nitish Rane and former MP Navneet Rana. After the demands of the leaders, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis also supported the demand. However, he also emphasized that any action should be taken within the purview of the law.

Opposition party leaders opposed this demand of BJP leaders. Leader of Opposition in Maharashtra Legislative Council Ambadas Danve said, “There is proof of Aurangzeb’s tomb here that he came here and was defeated and killed here.” We can tell the coming generations that this is the land where the Emperor of India was defeated and buried.
