Monuments, for example, the Rashtrapati Bhavan, the Parliament House and the Red Fort to be demolished as they too are "symbols of slavery" similarly as the Taj Mahal, Samajwadi Party general secretary Azam Khan has said.
The SP MLA's comments the previous evening came in light of BJP MLA Sangeet Som's remarks scrutinizing the Taj Mahal's place in India's legacy. Som had said history would be rewritten to erase Mughal emperors from it.
"I have constantly held the view that all images of slavery ought to be deleted. Why
just Taj Mahal? For what reason not Parliament, Rashtrapati Bhavan, Qutub Minar and Red Fort? These are altogether images of slavery," Khan told the media.
The previous UP minister said that if the BJP and Som are determined about not tolerating that the Taj Mahal is an inheritance of India, at that point the BJP MLA alongside Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath should approach to devastate the monument.
He likewise lashed out at BJP pioneers for not catching up on their words with activities.
