The struggle for construction of the Ram Temple lasted for around 500 years. It began after the demolition of Ram Temple in Ayodhya by Babur's forces. For Bharatiya society, Babur was an Islamic invader. He represented and practised a set of cultural values that didn't believe in co-existence whereas Lord Rama represents civilizational values that believe in 'Vasudheiv Kutumbakam' (the whole world is one family). The struggle for building a Ram Temple at Ayodhya, was thus, a civilizational war between these two set of values, How Hindus fought this war and won it despite all odds is a breath taking story that the world needs to know. Because this story is not about merely a temple or a God, it is about the victory of 'Dharma' that is the soul of Hindu civilization and Bharat.
