Aurangzeb's grave should be demolished : MP Udayanraje Bhosale

Fans of Aurangzeb should get out to his native country !

Satara, Maharashtra – Aurangzeb was a fanatic, a cruel ruler and a looter. The grave of Aurangzeb, who tortured Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and brutally killed Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, is being glorified and deified in Maharashtra. It is being celebrated here as Urus (celebrations organized on the death anniversary of a Muslim religious leader). It’s like rubbing salt into our wounds. Speaking to the media here, Udayanraje Bhosale, the thirteenth descendant of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, said that Aurangzeb’s grave should be demolished to put an end to such incidents forever.

He said…

1. Aurangzeb persecuted every kingdom in this country, committed atrocities against people, brought about religious conversion, killed his brothers out of his own political ambitions, imprisoned his father, attacked the temples and Deities here. He tried to destroy our culture. He and his ancestors had come only to loot our country.They maligned our Deities, country and religion. How can such a man be a role model for us ?

2. Aurangzeb was the enemy of our country, kingdom (swaraj), our king. Anyone who loves Aurangzeb, who wants to go there and bow his head, should take this grave and get out to where Aurangzeb, his ancestors came from.

3. The fans who glorify Aurangzeb should stop this act, otherwise they should get out to Aurangzeb’s native country.
