- Abstract
- The article examines a campaign conducted by the religious organization Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP, “World Hindu’s council”) with the help of the Sri Ram Janmabhoomi Tirth Kshetra Foundation (“Pilgrimage Square of Lord Rama’s Birthplace”), established by the Government of India, to collect funds for the restoration of the Rama Temple in the city of Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh, on the site of the Babur Mosque, which was destroyed in December 1992. The restoration of the temple is one of the main points of the Hindutva ideology, which has been dominant in India since 2014 after the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) came to power and Narendra Modi was appointed as Prime Minister of India. The largest contribution to the restoration of the temple was made by the religious organization Vishwa Hindu Parishad, which organized religious processions in support of this initiative and then took control of collecting funds for the construction. The article shows how money was collected for the temple, how it was spent and what results were achieved during the campaign and after it.
