The Tajmahal is Tejomahalay .

P.N. Oak is a communal RSS minded historian. His so called research is not shared by most historians. Based on Oak's observations, the Baj rang Dal activists (RSS outfiit) are creating nuisance. They observe AArati near Taj Mahal time to time claiming that the building is so called Tejo Mahal. But the police say that Yamanu bank is very large and these miscreants simply publidh photos for publicity sake, We need not give any heed to Oak's  meaningless stuff.  

Yes. We need not give any importance to such controversial matters. But my aim of this post is to know certain facts, historical or not which are making rounds now.

Even if the site was a temple a few hundred years ago, one cannot hold on to that now since a lot of changes have taken place in those years.It is wiser to move forward rather than look back and rake up issues that has no positive outcome ..

True...there is no point in holding on to that now, but there is no harm in telling the correct and true version of history than a falsified version. That is all, tell the truth as it is!

Yes Kalyani. The very intention of this post to reveal some historical facts related to Tajmahal.

I agree with those views Kalyani...I present another article written by Mr Oak who is not from RSS but one who was a proud Hindu, nothing wrong in that.. He gives his reasons for calling Tajmahal a hindu temple..

In fact, the contents of my post are the observations of Mr. Oak, But Oak has been dismissed as a RSS supporter. But whatever it may be History remains as History come whatever.

Anybody who shows patriotism and affinity towards Hindutva is dubbed a RSS man these days,...this is how Congress has portrayed nationalism, you either show your disdain for majority Hindus or else you become a RSS stooge..

How long these pseudo patriots can snub the History ? They may deliver sermons about patriotism. But they cannot erase History.

History is what you read in school and not that by P.K. Oak.  Taj Mahal is no so ancient. There is no basis for the belief that Taj Mahal was not bilit by Emperor Shahjehan in memory of empress Mumtalmahal.  

In the post i clearly said the intention of my post is to reveal certain beliefs prevailing in country on the Taj.. I am neither a supporter or a non supporter of the Issue. If somebody feels that there is no evidence, they are free to produce the evidence.

History is written by human beings and based on many a times hearsay...To know whether there was a temple before Taj Mahal was built, one has to break it down and dig deep which obviously is not possible.So, going by some facts , some people believe that there is strong evidence that there was a temple since afterall India was a Hindu nation before Mughals invaded it. But now it is a subject for discussion only ...

Those who say that there is no evidence claiming that the Taj is not  built on a Hindu temple.. Let them come up with an evidence proving  that the Taj is purely mausoleum built by shajahan  in remembrance of his wife.

It is obvious how deeply the pseudu historians have brainwashed us into believing that Taj really was a mausoleum that many of us find it hard to accept otherwise. Also I wish to point out that just by ridiculing such theories and by dubbing people who believe in them as supporters or RSS etc. will not change the true history.  You believe what you wish and let us believe in whichever theories we want to!

People with biased views cannot assimilate the facts . History can be written by anybody. History has not fallen from the blue. Our present History was dictated by the English rulers showering praises on the British rule and demolishing the real history of India.

It is the same land on which constructions, demolition and reconstructions constantly take place. History ius nothing butr a sequence of wars, conqests, defeats. The victors have their way.  Obviously, the foreign invaders could use only the existing land. There is no way whatever they did would be only in news space leaving old constructions untouched. Taj Mahal is a reality and any previous construction on the site has nothing to do with this fact. It makes no sense to say that anything should even try to disprove Oak. He is simply to be ignored. We have to accept facts as they are and not what the saffron communalists would like. 

It is being stupid to say that the Mughal invaders built only on new space and left the old structures untouched  , they destroyed so many... It is also true that they built many great architecturally inspiring buildings,

True Usha, they did give us marvellous architecture wonders but at the same time, destroyed even better structures and artistic beauties that were built by our people. One only has to visit the Ajanta and Ellora caves, Elephanta caves and many other places to look at the damage they intentionally caused.

We can see destruction of Hindu structures everywhere even places like Hampi and  other temples in Karnataka...

The link Usha has given  thrown light on the persecution of Hindus by Muslim rulers. It is not a consolation if the Muslim rulers gave us architectural wonders. Demolishing Hindu structures and building architectural structures is only to glorify the Muslim rulers.
