JD(U) MP: Muslims have right to build Babri Masjid replica

  • Kumar cited the Constitution's guarantee of religious freedom, justifying the mosque's construction and distancing himself from BJP's "invader" stance on Babur.
  • He criticized West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee for allegedly cracking down on the Muslim leader for expressing religious sentiments.
  • The proposed mosque in Murshidabad is modeled on the original Babri Masjid, demolished in Ayodhya in 1992.
