1/n] An adjunct to the expose of secular drama of UP Tourism by @TIinExile on @AtalaDeviMosque, a contemporary eye-witness account. If one visits as an innocuous 'secular' tourist, no problem to Ms but the moment one starts enquiry they indulge in verbal and on-verbal threats.
2/n] The mosque was constructed after demolishing part of the grandiose Atala Devi temple and altering the balance. Mohammadans can't tolerate the word 'Hindu' even in the 'whitewashed' introduction, was rubbed off. I had written to ASI about it, no reply. Don't know action taken 
3/n] The 'shameless liar' plaque falsely tells that city Jaunpur was established by Firoz Shah Tughalaq. If it was so, was the grand temple constructed in an inhabited place to be demolished by invaders? Infact, it was already a flourishing town before overrun by Muslim invaders.
