Tejo Mahal???!!!!!

You might have received this as a forward in the recent times...if not check this out.....http://www.flex.com/~jai/satyamevajayate/tejo.html. Recent evidence points out that Taj Mahal was originally a Hindu Palace! I was interested to read the article but more thoughts crept in at the end of it.....is this going to be the new Babri Masjid issue? Why cannot people just let things be? Why do they want to start a new way to antagonize another community’s beliefs? Is it not easy to admire the monument's beauty and splendor and let history be? Many of you might not agree on this as I found that some of my friends did not either...if it was built by Hindus then it should rightfully belong to us they argued! These discussions irk me a lot since I believe religion to be the main cause for most battles. Ofcourse I do realize that if these facts are true, then it should revealed to the world. But I feel strongly that no further action should be taken but to just leave Taj Mahal be the symbol of never ending love as it has always been know to us.

Yes things should be as they are. All that we ask for is that the building of this Wonder of the World be credited to its true architect and not to a invader. Yes Shahjahan can be credited for having won it over from the Rajput King but history should not credit him as the builder. Why should India's Heritage be credited to Invaders. The TAJ should not be known as a symbol of Islamic or Mughal Raj in India as it is being conceived today.

i agree with what aniruddh is saying..I think the indian government knows about it but they are just afraid of possible communal clashes and hence not letting the truth come out..cowards..
