- W2510164864 abstract "watched as television showed crowds of young men using crowbars, pickaxes, trishuls (tridents), hammers, shovels, and even bamboo sticks to attack and bring down the three domes of the 464-year-old Babri Mosque in Ayodhya. This mosque, a center of controversy in Indian politics for seven years, was demolished in a mere five hours by the fierce and determined assaults of the foot soldiers of militant Hinduism. Bewildered viewers expected the central government to act and seize control of the situation, but it took forty hours before Rapid Action Force commandos moved in and took over the site-in 40 minutes. By this time, the kar sevaks (volunteers in service of the movement) had not only pounded the masjid (mosque) to a rubble, but also built a makeshift Ram in its place. Their well coordinated effort involved clearing out the rubble and constructing a concrete platform, complete with a canopy and crude concrete steps and implanted with the Ram Lalla images. An eight-foot brick wall was built around the temple to protect it. This act of demolition threw Prime Minister Narasimha Rao's government into a state of shocked disarray. The center had relied on the strategy of legal constraints to forestall such actions, and it had accepted the assurances given by Kalyan Singh, the Bharatiya Janata Party chief minister of Uttar Pradesh, that the mosque would not be harmed. New Delhi also had posted Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) units in Faizabad to be used if the state government asked for them, but on December 6 the units could not get anywhere near the site. The kar sevaks, whose organization and coordination belied any claim to spontaneous religious fervor," @default.
