RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat has said that the Sangh fountainhead was not in favour of launching any other movements amid a row over Gyanvapi mosque. 

Addressing the concluding session of the RSS officer training camp in Nagpur, Bhagwat said the Gyanvapi dispute involves some issues of faith and the court’s decision on it should be accepted by all.

Bhagwat questioned what he called the need to “look for a Shivling in every mosque.

The saffron leader said that the Gyanvapi mosque has a history which neither the Hindus or Muslims of today can change.

“Hindus are not opposed to Muslims. The ancestors of Muslims were Hindus. Many feel that what was done (the demolition of temples) was done to break the morale of Hindus. A section of Hindus now feel that these temples need to be reconstructed,” he said.
