Yogi Adityanath, Chief Minister, Uttar Pradesh:-
From Mohammad Ghori to the Mughals, many foreign invaders tried to destroy our spiritual and cultural identity. Aurangzeb demolished the ancient temple of Baba Vishwanath and erected a structure symbolizing slavery here but he could not break the soul of India. They could not understand that the Eternal resides not only within the walls of temples but in the consciousness of India itself. India considers its soul eternal and immortal.
‘Tried to erase Sanatan, got erased myself’
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said, ‘Those who tried to destroy Sanatan themselves turned to dust and today no one remembers those invaders, but Kashi Vishwanath Dham and Somnath Temple are carrying forward the story of India’s self-respect.’
