Qutub minar built by a genocidal alien invader after demolishing 27 Hindu and Jain temples.

"Tower of victory." WHAT victory? Over whom?

Who even runs these handles?
Here's how a historian describes the "victory." Paraphrasing.

"The blood of the infidels flowed like a river and the Yamuna became discolored."
The "tower of victory" was also built using the debris of the demolished Hindu and Jain temples. Incredible India indeed!
Qutub-ud-din Aibak, the builder of the "tower of victory" was also the guy who was instrumental in another "victory." At Kashi. He holds the "credit" for razing a whopping 1000 temples FOR THE FIRST TIME IN VARANASI. Bet @incredibleindia will find a mosque there to celebrate it.
Aibak's pious successor, Iltutmish also distinguished himself. By smashing the Mahakala Temple at Ujjain & carrying the smashed Murtis to Quwwat ul Islam mosque where they were “broken at the door so that the Faithful could trample upon it."
I can go on but this suffices I guess. This is why History is one of the major focus areas of The Dharma Dispatch.

As always, Sri Rama Jayam 🙏🙏🕉️🚩
