”India’s Identity in Hindu. This is similar to USA’s identity as ‘Anglo-Saxon Caucasian Protestant Christian’. It may have citizens from various races and religions. Similarly, India maybe home for people practicing various religions, the identity however is Hindu” said Dr. Subramanian Swamy addressing an audience of about 600 people in a packed hall in Plano (Dallas area), Texas, USA. Member of Parliament (Rajya Sabha, Republic of India) and a Senior BJP leader, Dr Swamy visited Dallas on an invitation from Global Hindu Heritage Foundation (GHHF) to speak on “The Government control of Temples in India” on Tuesday, 13th September 2016. His brilliant speech covered various topics that are dear to all Hindus such as the history and significance of Hindu Temples; need for the preservation of Hindu values; difference between Hindu Temples and Christian churches and Mosques; illegal occupation and construction of Babri Masjid; legal battle to construct Rama Temple in Ayodhya, the birth place of Lord Rama; efforts to repeal of the Endowment act in the Supreme Court; and the potential problems Hindus may face after Hindu Temples are freed from the government control.
Welcoming the gathering, Gopal Ponangi, active volunteer and who served as Master of Ceremony for the evening, thanked everyone for coming to listen to Dr Swamy on a Tuesday evening, in spite of being a working day. Hari Ramasubbu initiated the event with invocation prayers. This was followed by Lighting the lamps at the altar by Dr Swamy and attendees from various organization in and around Dallas. Gopal then introduced Dr Prakasarao Velagapudi, the Founder and President of Global Hindu Heritage Foundation which organized the event in collaboration with various Hindu faith based organizations in and around Dallas area. Dr Velagapudi spoke about the origin of GHHF and some of the it’s activities over the last ten years. He then introduced Dr Swamy as a lone ranger, and one-man army making the difference inuplifting the moral compass in the India and fighting to uproot the corruption and cronies.
Dr Swamy addressed the gathering by vividly describing the process that makes the Hindu Temples sacred by doing Pranaprathishta puja to convert Murthy into a God. Once they are sanctified, they cannot be removed since life is infused in the Murthy. Even the British Courts have agreed to this process. He said Churches and Mosques are only places of congregation; they can be removed and shifted with no recourse. Saudi Arabia has demolished hundreds of Mosques to widen the roads and construction of Apartments.
He rightly pointed out that Muslims must accept their Hindu ancestry to live in peace and harmony since all the people in India, irrespective of their religion, caste, creed, and state, have the same DNA. All Muslim should agree to build Temples in Mathura, Ayodhya and Varanasi, otherwise we should make a case to repossess 2000 Hindu Temples that were converted into Mosques. Since investigation has revealed the existence of Rama Temple before the construction of Babri Masjid based on scientific evidence, efforts must be made to build Rama Temple as soon as possible. He wants to see the Construction of Rama Temple completed by the end of 2017 since it is also the agenda of BJP.
