Watching a video of Asaduddin Owaisi responding to Nishikant Dubey's comments of worshippers of Babar was bit befuddling.
Asaduddin Owaisi remarked that in same vein Pushyamitra Shunga should also be castigated as he had also massacred Buddhists.
Without even going deeper into researching the motives of the said King who came after assassination of last Maurya King, I was just wondering that whether this comment merits any equivalence. Do Hindus really worship or fete Pushyamitra shunga or even Lalitaditya Muktapeeda who he had referenced in the same way Babar and the so-called great Aurangzeb are talked about. Do Hindus have cities named after annihilators of commonfolk's like Bhakyityarpur or Aurangabad (In Bihar that is). Do we have roads named after these mutilators? Do we have festivals like Tipu Jayanti celebrated for Shunga like Sunga jayanti
This is an absolute bogus argument which could not even be defended by the so-called BJP minister or people in the public.
Such absurdities need to be called out with vengeance.
