Owaisi: Babri Demolition Weakened Constitution, Not Just Mosque

• AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi called the Babri Masjid demolition on Dec 6, 1992, a "Black Day" that weakened the Indian Constitution.
• Owaisi criticized the Prime Minister's remarks on "500-year-old wounds," citing the Supreme Court's finding that no temple was demolished to build the mosque.
• The Babri Masjid was demolished on December 6, 1992, leading to widespread riots and over 1,000 deaths.
• Suspended TMC MLA Humayun Kabir laid the foundation stone for a new Babri Masjid in Murshidabad.
• Kabir asserted his constitutional right to build places of worship, stating the Supreme Court acknowledged the demolition and that the Constitution allows for mosque construction.
