9780143442226: Ayodhya: 6 December 1992

Synopsis

In this tell-all account, P.V. Narasimha Rao-the leader who is even today blamed for inaction in 1992-reveals what really transpired at Ayodhya. Discussing Article 356 of the Constitution at length, Rao explains why it was inadvisable to place UP under President's rule. Drawing on the Supreme Court order, parliamentary proceedings, eyewitness reports and his own insights, he presents a comprehensive view of the machinations that led to the attack on the Babri Masjid. Ayodhya: 6 December 1992 was written in the mid-1990s, after Rao had stepped down as prime minister, and published posthumously according to his wishes. Twenty-five years after the event, this book remains a valuable resource to understanding the cynical political manoeuvres behind the Ram Mandir issue and the dangers of exploiting religious sentiments for narrow electoral gain.
