Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Tirtha Kshetra treasurer Govind Dev Giri Maharaj said the Hindu community will not seek other mosques if Kashi and Mathura are freed peacefully. He said that there were 3,500 Hindu temples demolished in foreign attacks.
Addressing a press conference in Alandi on the outskirts of Pune where various religious programmes are being held between February 4 and February 11 as part of his 75th birthday celebrations, Giri Maharaj said, “If we get two temples peacefully with love, we will forget about all other things.”
“We do not even desire to look at the others if these three temples are freed because we have to live in the future and not in the past. The country’s future should be good,” he said.
RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat and Sri Sri Ravishankar, among the others, will attend these programmes.
Maharaj also urged the Muslim community to support this demand for a peaceful solution. He said that the issue is only about removing signs of the attacks and it should not be considered as a problem between the two communities.
“We found a peaceful solution (for Ram Mandir) and since such an era has begun, we are hopeful that the other issues will also be resolved peacefully,” he added.
Maharaj said people in the Muslim community are ready for a peaceful solution for the remaining two temples but some oppose it. “We will take a stand as per the situation and try to convince them. We will ensure that no non-peaceful environment is created, ” he said.
