Qutub Minar: The petition seeking the right to worship and start worship in Delhi’s Qutub Minar will be heard in the Saket court tomorrow. Before the hearing, the petitioner Harishankar Jain has made a big claim. He said that more than 100 remains of about 27 temples are still present in Qutub Minar and they have so much evidence that there is a temple in Qutub Minar that no one can deny.
Claim of having ruins of a temple in Qutub Minar
According to Harishankar Jain, if you have gone to Qutub Minar, then you must have seen that there is an Iron Pillar in the south of the tower. Whatever figure you have seen around it, or whatever figure remains, they are all the remains of the temples, which have been installed near the Iron Pillar. These art and sculptures are commonly seen in Hindu temples.
Once again people got the right to worship
Harishankar Jain told that the entire verandah of the tower has been prepared from similar remains. He further told that all his claims and evidence have been taken from the books of ASI. Not only this, the ASI also believes that the relics belong to the temple. This means that both Jains and Hindus used to worship in the temples that were here. Describing the history, he said that wherever there used to be Jain temples, Hindu temples should also be built around them. Therefore once again people should get the right to worship here.
