Speaking to a news channel, Rashidi who is the chairman of All India Imam Association, said “People say that Ghaznavi (Mahmud of Ghazni) has destroyed the Somnath temple. But history is that people informed him about what is going on in name of Aastha (belief) and devi-devatas in that temple, how girls go missing there. Even after learning this, Ghaznavi first got the matter investigated, and he sent his CID (sic), When he found that the allegations are true, then he attacked Somnath temple. But he didn’t destroy the temple, he ended the wrongdoings happening there,” Rashid can be heard spewing in the clip above.
