‘No archival evidence’: Congress slams Rajnath’s ‘Nehru wanted to rebuild Babri’ charge

Congress has vehemently refuted Defence Minister Rajnath Singh’s assertion that Jawaharlal Nehru intended to fund the Babri Masjid’s construction with public money, a claim the party labels a “lie.” Citing Nehru’s opposition to state funding for religious sites, including the Somnath Temple, Congress stated they would not permit the distortion of Nehru and Sardar Patel’s legacies by “Godse’s followers.”
