Babri Mosque - Aftermath

Aftermath

The country was rocked by communal riots immediately following demolition of the mosque, between Hindus and Muslims in which more than 2,000 people died. Many terror attacks by banned jihadi outfits like Indian Mujahideen cited demolition of Babri Mosque as an excuse for terrorist attacks. In Pakistan some temples were burned while across Bangladesh hundreds of shops, homes and temples of Hindus were destroyed.
