#rammandir #rammandirayodhya #rammandirinauguration Around 2800 personnel of the Uttar Pradesh Armed Constabulary were deployed in Ayodhya on October 30th, 1990, to counter the Ram Mandir Karsevak event organized by the Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP). However, the Karsevaks broke through the security personnel and advanced toward the disputed Babri Masjid. Some of them managed to climb onto the dome of the disputed structure and planted saffron flags. Faced with an offensive by security personnel, the Karsevaks were forced to retreat. Officials wanted the saffron flags removed from the domes but encountered a unique situation. They found that a monkey had taken position in the middle of the dome of the mosque. The police personnel saw the monkey as an avatar of Lord Hanuman, who appeared to protect the flag. Unwilling to disturb it, the monkey sat near the flag for hours. Later in the night, when the monkey left the dome, three or four jawans climbed atop the dome and removed the flag.
